Abstract
A connector includes a mat seal in which lips are protruded from an inner circumferential surface of a wire insertion hole, and a terminal to which an electric wire is connected and which has a cylindrical body to be inserted a mating terminal. The terminal is accommodated in a position that passes through the wire insertion hole, and the electric wire is arranged in a press-fitted state in the wire insertion hole. When a curvature radius of an edge part of the cylindrical body that contacts to the inner circumferential surface of the wire insertion hole in a process of passing through the wire insertion hole is denoted by Rand a compression ratio of the lip in the process of passing through the wire insertion hole is denoted by CR, the curvature radius Ris set based on a formula of difficulty of mat seal breakage =f(R/CR).
