Patent ID: 10741964

Abstract:
It is aimed to simplify the shape of a short-circuit means. A joint connector (A) includes a housing (10), a plurality of terminal fittings (35F, 35S, 35T) provided in the housing (10) and each formed such that a plurality of tabs (37F, 37D, 7R) are coupled by a terminal base portion (36), and a short-circuit module (40) provided in the housing (10) and formed by arranging a plurality of short-circuit plates (42) side by side in a length direction of the tabs (37F, 37D, 37R). The short-circuit plate (42) is formed with a plurality of conduction holes (45) for allowing the tabs (37F, 37D, 37R) to pass therethrough in a contact state and non-contact holes (44) for allowing the tabs (37F, 37D, 37R) to pass therethrough in a non-contact state, and an arrangement of the plurality of conduction holes (45) differs among the plurality of short-circuit plates (42).
