Abstract
A connector is connected with a connector joint structure formed in separators in a fuel cell. The connector has: a connector casing; a terminal element that is provided in the connector casing and is configured to be in contact with an edge side of the separator and to be elastically deformed in an insertion direction of the connector that is orthogonal to a stacking direction of the separators, when the connector is connected with the connector joint structure; and an engagement element that is formed in the connector casing and is configured to engage with the connector joint structure and restrict motion of the connector in the insertion direction when the connector is connected with the connector joint structure.
