We study systematically the prolongation of second order connections in the sense of C. Ehresmann from a fibered manifold into its vertical bundle determined by a Weil algebra $A$. In certain situations we deduce new properties of the prolongation of first order connections. Our original tool is a general concept of a $B$-field for another Weil algebra $B$ and of its $A$-prolongation.
