Abstract
A housing used for an electric connector, includes a terminal space into which an electric terminal is to be inserted, and a lance for preventing the electric terminal from being slipped out of the terminal space. The lance includes a flexible portion, and a protrusion extending from the flexible portion and engaging with the electric terminal. The lance defines an escape space in which the flexible portion can be bent in a direction in which the protrusion and the electric terminal are disengaged with each other. The flexible portion has a passage along which a jig can move and which extends in a direction in which the jig is inserted into the lance, and the jig is used for disengaging the protrusion and the electric terminal from each other.
