This invention pertains to an electric storage battery and more particularly to a connector for electrically connecting adjacent cells of the electric storage battery with each other. The electric storage battery comprises a battery case having partition walls provided to form compartments therein, cell components disposed within the respective compartments and including a plurality of positive and negative plates alternately arranged with insulating separators disposed between the adjacent positive and negative plates, and connectors provided between the adjacent cell components for electrically connecting them. Each of the connectors comprises first plate lugs of the positive plates for one of the adjacent cell components and second plate lugs of the negative plates for the other of the adjacent cell components, the first and second plate lugs facing each other through the corresponding partition wall of the battery case and being deformed to be gathered together and being welded integrally with each other. The first and second plate lugs may be welded through an opening in the corresponding partiton wall. Otherwise, the first and second plate lugs may be welded at the top of the corresponding partition wall of the battery case.
