A connector and a method for producing the same

摘要

To avoid problems in producing and handling a wiring harness when one conductive path which is branched from a main path of the wiring harness and returns thereto again after passing via branch paths is constructed. ÄSolutionÜ A cutter 25 is provided between two blade-type terminal fittings 20a, 20d of a joint connector 10, and a main wire Waa is connected with the two blade-type terminal fittings and cut therebetween by the cutter 25. By connecting a branching connector 40 with the joint connector 10, branch terminal fittings 41a, 41d are connected with the blade-type terminal fittings 20a, 20d. Since all main wires forming a wiring harness WH are allowed to have the same length and to be bundled together, there is no problem in producing and handling the wiring harness WH. <IMAGE>
