PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector being capable of securely electrically connecting a common terminal and a normally closed terminal and being miniaturized. SOLUTION: A pressure-receiving protrusion 51 is provided on a switch terminal 50 slidably contacting an tube-like inner surface of a common terminal 40 to be freely movably guided in the vertical direction and is inserted through an insertion hole 15 of an insulation housing 9. A break contact 33a of a normally closed terminal 30 is faced to a moving path of a conductive cap 52 to be slidably contacted to the switch terminal 50. Because the pressure-receiving protrusion 51 is inserted through the insertion hole 15 all the time, dust does not enter through the insertion hole 15. Because the break contact 33a slidably contacts with the conductive cap 52 of the switch terminal 50, imperfect contact is prevented by a self-cleaning action. Because the common terminal 40 houses only the switch terminal 50 to reduce its outer diameter, a connector with a switch can be miniaturized.
