An electrical connector (1) for insertion of an electronic card comprises an insulating housing (10), a plurality of contacts (20) secured to the housing, a shield (30) enclosing a top surface (10a) of the housing and a pair of grounding plates (40) assembled to the housing. The housing defines a receiving slot (18) and a locking slot (19) at the top surface. The grounding plates comprise base portions (42), mating portions (44) extending from bottom edges of the base portions for being soldered to a motherboard, and locking portions (46) extending from top edges of the base portions. The locking portion include hooks (46b) at free ends thereof retained within the locking slots and necks (46a) between the hooks and the base portions for pressing the top surface of the housing, thereby preventing disengagement between the housing and the grounding plate.
