An electrical connector (1) includes a base (2) electrically connectable to a printed circuit board, a cover (3) slidably mounted on the base, and an actuation device (4) for actuating the cover to slide along the base. The base forms a projection (221) thereon, and the cover defines a corresponding sliding slot (321). The sliding slot slidably receives the projection when the base and the cover are attached together. The base having the projection is configured to match only the cover having the sliding slot. Thus when assembling a base and a cover during manufacturing of multiple types of electrical connectors having similar structures, an operator can avoid mismatching of a base with the wrong cover, or vice versa. In an alternative embodiment, a projection (322') is formed on a cover (3'), and a corresponding sliding slot (221') is defined in a base (2').
