Abstract
A terminal includes an elastic contact piece. The elastic contact piece comes into elastic contact with a counterpart terminal in a terminal container. The elastic contact piece includes a bent portion bent and extending from a portion of a side wall of the terminal container in the terminal container, and a clamping portion extending from a front end of the bent portion in the terminal container along an extending direction of the side wall. A dimension of the clamping portion is longer than a dimension of the bent portion in the extending direction, so as to prevent a foreign substance from entering between an inner wall of the terminal container and the clamping portion.
