Abstract
An electric wire including a conductor; and a coating material outside of the conductor, wherein a water-stopping agent having a flowability is located between the conductor and the coating material on a connection terminal side of the electric wire.
Claims8
An electric wire having a first end comprising:
- a conductor;
- a clamping terminal clamped to a length of the conductor at the first end of the wire;
- a coating material outside of the conductor and extending along substantially an entire length of the conductor except the length of the conductor at the first end of the wire, which is free of the coating material, wherein a water-stopping agent having a flowability contacts the conductor after clamping the clamping terminal to the conductor and is located between a position where the clamping terminal clamps to the conductor and the coating material only at the first end of the wire.
An electric wire with a terminal comprising:
- a conductor:
- a clamping terminal clamped to a terminal clamping portion of the conductor;
- and
- a coating material outside of the conductor and extending along substantially an entire length of the conductor except for an end portion of the conductor that is free of the coating material, wherein a water-stopping agent having a flowability contacts the conductor after clamping the clamping terminal to the terminal clamping portion of the conductor and is located between the conductor and the coating material at least at an inner side of the coating material on the terminal clamping portion of the conductor.
