An electric connector for electrically connecting various electric wires and plugs in a very simple manner comprises a housing made of electrically insulating material, an electrically conductive place, a spring means disposed above said electrically conductive plate and consisted of a retaining plate spring having an end turned back inwardly at an angle larger than 90 DEG and a clamping plate spring disposed underneath said retaining plate spring, and an operating member movably disposed above said spring means so as to assume a first position and a second position. In said first position of said operating member a conductor to be connected is allowed to be inserted into said electric connector and in said second position of said operating member, said spring means is depressed to urge said conductor against said electrically conductive plate. The electric connector further comprises a means for supporting said spring means in such a manner that when said operating member is in said first position, there can be formed a spacing between said spring means and said electrically conductive plate sufficient for inserting said conductor therebetween without striking against said spring means so as to connect said conductor electrically and mechanically in a very stable manner.
