A connector that reduces generation of faults, such as short-circuits of terminals and circuits, by reducing generations of whiskers resulting from use of lead-free solder. The connector comprises a contact part and a housing part. A recess is formed in the area where the contact part is received into the housing part. The recess encloses whiskers generated in the connector at this location. The recess is sized such that whiskers of an anticipated size do not extend from the contact part to the housing part and such that foreign bodies are unlikely to be able to enter the recess.
