Abstract: An electrical connection box is provided in which a printed circuit board provided with a lateral connection-type connector is housed in a case, and a cover is attached to the case, and this electrical connection box has a novel structure in which a reduction in size and manufacturing cost can be achieved while still reliably protecting the connector. A surface mount-type connector is provided on a printed circuit board as the lateral connection-type connector, and the case and the cover are provided with incorrect-connection-prevention projection portions that, in the case where the cover is brought close to the case upside down relative to the proper orientation, prevent incorrect attachment of the cover by abutting against each other before the cover abuts against the connector.
