A female terminal for heavy current reduces the contact resistance relative to a male terminal, and correctly positions the male terminal's blade. The body part of the female terminal includes a first elastic piece, provided at least on one side in the height direction of a receiving space so that it can undergo elastic deformation in the height direction, and having, on the inner side thereof, a first contacting part extending for a certain width. The body part further includes a second elastic piece, provided at least on one side in the width direction of the receiving space so that it can undergo elastic deformation in the width direction, and having, on the inner side thereof, a second contacting part extending for a certain height. When the blade is inserted into the receiving space, the first contacting part pressingly contacts a top or bottom face of the blade and the second contacting part pressingly contacts a side face of the blade.
