An AC power input socket includes a casing and at least two conductive pins. The casing comprises a connection side and an output side based on performance of the AC power input socket. The casing is provided with an accommodating groove at the connection side, each of the two conductive pins includes a power connection section located in the accommodating groove, an output section extending from the power connection section and passing through the casing to be exposed on the output side, and a capacitor connecting section extending from an end of the output section. Each of the conductive pins is provided with a through hole in the output section for disposing an electric wire, and the capacitor connecting section provides a capacitor pin to be connected thereon, so that the capacitor pin and the electric wire do not need to be disposed at a same hole position.

A method of transporting grounding plates is provided, having a step of providing a plurality of grounding plates made from an electrically conductive material. Each grounding plate has a plate body with first and second faces that are planar, opposed, and parallel to each other, and a grounding connector formed from the same material and having a first end connected to the plate body. The grounding connector is bendable about the first end from a planar configuration to a functional configuration. In the planar configuration, the grounding connector is aligned with and parallel to the first and second faces of the plate body, and in the functional configuration, the grounding connector is at an angle relative to the first face of the plate body. The method has the further steps of stacking the plurality of grounding plates in the planar configuration and transporting the stack to a destination.

Provided is a connector capable of firmly maintaining a connection state. A connector 1 includes a first clamp portion 10 having a press receiving portion 11 and a second clamp portion 30 having a press portion 31a. At least one of the press receiving portion 11 and the press portion 31a includes metal. When the second clamp portion 30 is fixed to the first clamp portion 10 or a housing that holds the first clamp portion 10, a linear conductor inserted from one end portion side of the press receiving portion 11 is clamped between the press portion 31a and the press receiving portion 11, comes into contact with the press portion 31a and the press receiving portion 11, and is bent between the one end portion and the press portion 31a.
