To easily cope with a change in a distance between battery posts, a cover (5) includes a pair of cover elements (6, 7) which are provided with receptacles (8) for accommodating connection members (3) of a battery connection terminal (1), and hollow connection portions (9, 10) which are slidably fitted so as to adjust the length of the cover (5). The connection portions (9, 10) are openable, and the receptacles (8) are provided with lids (28). After the connection portions (9, 10) are opened and partly assembled, the battery connection terminal (1) is inserted into the cover (5) sideways. Then, the connection portions (9, 10) are closed. The assembly of the cover (5) and the terminal (1) is fitted such that battery posts (51) are inserted into insertion holes (4) formed in the connection members (3), and the lids (28) are closed after nuts (54) are fastened to the battery posts (51). When a distance between the battery posts (51) is changed, a corresponding battery connection terminal is prepared and the length of the cover (5) is adjusted by sliding the connection portions (9, 10) with respect to each other. Accordingly, a slight change in the distance between the posts (51) can be offset by the length adjustment of the woven wire (2) and the cover (5).
