Ground connection fitting and ground connection device using same

A ground connection fitting for connecting at least one ground wire to a plurality of ground sections provided on a wall surface in a vehicle, comprising:

• a wire connecting portion shaped to be connectable to an end of the at least one ground wire;
• and
• a ground-side terminal portion including a first ground section connection part connectable to a first ground section and a second ground section connection part connectable to a second ground section different from the first ground section and having such a relative positional relationship that the first and second ground section connection parts are simultaneously connectable to the first and second ground sections,
• wherein:
• the wire connecting portion includes:
• a plurality of wire terminals to be respectively mounted on ends of a plurality of the ground wires,
• a plurality of wire-side terminal portions shaped to be fittable to the respective wire terminals in a common specific terminal fitting direction, and
• a connector housing including a plurality of terminal accommodating chambers into which the respective wire terminals are insertable through openings formed to be open in one direction parallel to the terminal fitting direction and terminal locking portions for locking the wire terminals inserted into the respective terminal accommodating chambers;
• the wire-side terminal portions are arranged in a direction substantially perpendicular to the terminal fitting direction and substantially parallel to the wall surface;
• the ground-side terminal portion is connected to each wire-side terminal portion;
• the wire-side terminal portion is so accommodated in each terminal accommodating chamber in the connector housing that the wire terminal is locked by the terminal locking portion in a state where the wire terminal inserted in each terminal accommodating chamber is fitted to the corresponding wire-side terminal portion;
• and
• the connector housing holds the ground-side terminal portion in such a manner that the ground-side terminal portion projects out from the connector housing at a side opposite to the openings of the respective terminal accommodating chambers.
