Female terminal fittings 15 are inserted into cavities 13 formed in a terminal housing 11 of a female housing 10, and are doubly retained therein by a retainer 30. Insertion grooves 28 are formed in an anterior portions of ceiling walls of the cavities 13, and cut-away grooves 37 are formed in anterior ends of an upper face of the retainer 30, these cut-away grooves 37 passing through to the insertion grooves 28. Innermost faces of the cut-away grooves 37 form inclined faces 38 which are inclined downwards. When the female terminal fittings 15 are housed within the cavities 13 and are doubly retained therein, upper faces of anterior ends of connecting members 16 are located directly below the insertion grooves 28. When a conductivity checking operation is performed, a conducting probe 40 is inserted from the anterior with a tip thereof being inclined downwards. The conducting probe 40 passes through the cut-away grooves 37 of the retainer 30, being guided by the inclined faces 38 at the innermost faces thereof. The conducting probe 40, while still in an inclined state, is inserted into the insertion groove 28 and makes contact with the relatively rigid upper face of the connecting member 16; damage to the terminal fittings is avoided.
