Original Abstract Submitted
The present invention relates to a connector for battery packs including a terminal pin configured to serve as an electrical connection path, a housing to which the terminal pin is mounted, and a high heat resistant member added to the housing, wherein melting of the connector is prevented due to addition of the high heat resistant member, whereby it is possible to block spread of a thermal runaway phenomenon occurring in a battery pack to the outside.
