The terminal space includes a pair of walls. The lance includes: a first elastically deformable portion outwardly extending from the terminal body; and a second elastically deformable portion being continuous with a distal end of the first portion, and being disposed outwardly of the first portion relative to the terminal body. A gap is formed between the terminal body and each of the walls, and the first and second portions can pass the gap in an elastically deformed condition.
