PURPOSE: To provide a printed wiring board holder for an electronic apparatus that enables an operator to carry out test of a printed wiring board or the like without applying an excessive force to a connector and the printed wiring board and without feeling uneasy about the static electricity that may be discharged from the operator when touching the apparatus or device by discharging the static electricity outside the apparatus.

CONSTITUTION: This printed wiring board holder has such a configuration that an edge of a spacer 1 and an edge of an inspection object board 4 are inserted in a groove 12 of a board holding member whose cross-section is formed to have a U-shape so that both the spacer 1 and the inspection object board 4 can vertically supported, and further that a concave section 28 is formed in both inner walls of the U-shape groove 12 of the printed wiring board holding member 10 so that an elastically stretched board 24 which is mechanically connected to the concave 28 can be protruded from the groove 12.
