Female terminal metal fixture for connector

摘要

This invention aims to provide a female terminal metal fixture for a connector, in which a contacting pressure on an elastic contact piece can be precisely and easily measured. In the fixture, a box like fitting portion 2 is provided in its interior with an elastic contact piece 5. The piece 5 has a contact area 6 adapted to elastically contact with a male terminal metal fixture. The contact area 6 electrically contacts with the male fixture when it is inserted into the fitting portion 2. The portion 2 is provided with an inspection aperture 8 in its upper wall 7 above the contact area 6. Measurement of a contacting force on the elastic contact piece 6 and observation of a surface condition of the piece can be effected through the inspection aperture 8.
