A charging connector (10) has a fitting (13) connectable to a vehicle-side connector (50) and a main body (11) with a forward opening (11A) to accommodate the fitting (13) so that a front end of the fitting (13) projects forward from the opening (11A). A lever (14) including an arm (14C) extends from the interior of the main body (11) to the front end of the fitting (13) to hold the vehicle-side connector (50) and the fitting (13) in a connected state. A protective wall (11B) extends forward from the opening (11A) of the main body (11) and covers the arm (14C) between the fitting (13) and itself. A lock (31) is at a front end of the lever (14) and has a lock projection (14A) that projects toward the fitting (13) and a reinforcement (14B) the projects toward a side opposite to the fitting (13).
