An electrical connector that alleviates limitations on a mounting position on a circuit board while maintaining a reduced height. The electrical connector includes a housing, a contact, and an actuator. The housing includes a front end and an opening into which a tip of a flexible printed circuit board having a connecting conductor at the tip is inserted. The contact is supported by the housing, and includes a solder connection portion exposed from the housing and a contact portion in a lower position in the opening to contact the connecting conductor of the flexible printed circuit board. The actuator is positioned in the housing, while a protrusion section, in the housing, adjusts upward a body portion of the flexible printed circuit board when inserted into the opening. The actuator is rotatable between an open position in which the tip of the flexible printed circuit board is allowed to be inserted into the opening and a closed position in which the connecting conductor at the tip of the flexible printed circuit board inserted into the opening is pressed against the contact portion.
