PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a relay terminal in novel structure capable of accurately designing both improvement in holding power of the relay terminal into a through-hole and reduction in insertion power of a connection terminal into the relay terminal, and a printed circuit board with the relay terminal.SOLUTION: A relay terminal 10 is disposed while being inserted into a through-hole 44 where a conducting path of a printed circuit board 42 is exposed, and used for connecting a connection terminal 52 to the conducting path. The relay terminal comprises a cylindrical terminal fitting 12. The terminal fitting 12 includes: an elastic tongue 18 that is brought into press-contact with the connection terminal 52 to be inserted into an insertion hole 14 of the terminal fitting 12, and an elastic protrusion 30 that is brought into press-contact with the conducting path that is exposed in the through-hole 44, by inserting and disposing the terminal fitting 12 in the through-hole 44. The elastic tongue 18 and the elastic protrusion 30 are elastically deformed independently of each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 |
