Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulating housing, a plurality of conductive terminals and two detecting terminals. The plurality of the conductive terminals are fastened in the insulating housing. Each conductive terminal has a first fastening portion. A front end of the first fastening portion extends frontward to form a contacting portion. The contacting portion is exposed to a front end of the insulating housing. The plurality of the conductive terminals include two power terminals and a plurality of signal terminals. The two detecting terminals are fastened in the insulating housing. Each detecting terminal is disposed between one signal terminal and one power terminal.

Abstract: A key structure includes two key bodies and two elastic pieces. The two key bodies are disposed face to face. Each of the two key bodies has a base portion. Two opposite ends of the base portion extend sideward towards a same direction to form two extending portions spaced from each other. The two extending portions of one of the two key bodies face to the two extending portions of the other key body, respectively. Two opposite ends of each of the two elastic pieces are fastened in the two extending portions of the two key bodies respectively.
