A female terminal structure connector (10) and a male terminal structure connector (20) constitute an electrical connector. The electrical connector includes a plurality of terminals (11,21) made of a metal sheet and arranged in a housing (12,22) in a plate thickness direction thereof to face with each other in plate surfaces.
The terminals are fitted into each other on a fitting surface (23A) provided on the housing (12,22). In the electrical connector, the terminal (11,21) extends in a direction perpendicular to a fitting surface (23A). A part of the terminal (11,21) situated on a fitting surface (23A) side has a contact portion (14,25) in a plate surface parallel to a fitting direction thereof. Further, the terminal (11,21) of at least one of the connectors (10,20) has an elastic portion to elastically bend in a plate thickness direction in a part of the terminal (11,21). The contact portion (14,25) is provided in the elastic portion.
