To ensure safety during connector connecting work, to reduce an installation number of interlocks, and to improve the design flexibility of a terminal stand.
A connector connecting structure includes: a connector 1 having a terminal fitting 15 to which a terminal of an electric wire 13 is connected; a case 5 provided with an insertion port 7 in which a tip end portion of the connector is inserted, and storing an electric apparatus; a terminal stand 3 stored in the case, and to which the terminal fitting is respectively connected; a cover portion 11 for opening/closing a work port 9 of the case, which is used when the terminal fitting of the connector inserted in the case is connected to the terminal stand; and an interlock for switching the acceptance and prevention of energization from the electric wire to the electric apparatus. The interlock is equipped with a first interlock portion 29 supported by the tip end portion in an insertion direction of the connector, and a second interlock portion 67 supported by the cover portion. The first and second interlock portions 29 and 67 are formed so as to be electrically connected with each other when the tip end portion of the connector is inserted in the case and the work port is closed by the cover portion, and the energization from the electric wire to the electric apparatus is prevented when the interlock portions 29 and 67 are not connected with each other.
