Said electrical connector has an insulative housing provided with contacts. Said contacts are connected to said wires that are led out of said electrical connector. Said wire protector has a connector mounting portion mounted on an outer wall of said electrical connector. A wire holding portion is integrally formed with said connector mounting portion. Said wire holding portion loosely holds said wires that are led out from said electrical connector at a position remote from said electrical connector while maintaining a direction thereof to reduce stress thereon.
