Mold for forming terminal of electric wire

A mold for forming a terminal of an electric wire, the mold comprising:

• a first electrode on which a looped conductor of the electric wire is placed, the looped conductor being an exposed conductor of the electric wire from which a coating of the electric wire is removed and having an overlap portion at which different parts of the exposed conductor are placed to overlap each other;
• a hole forming jig provided upright on the first electrode to extend through an inner hole of the looped conductor placed on the first electrode;
• a wire holding jig arranged to surround the first electrode;
• and
• a second electrode comprising a conductor pressing protrusion configured to be fitted in a conductor molding groove defined by the first electrode and the wire holding jig to press and heat the looped conductor between the first electrode and the second electrode,
• wherein the wire holding jig has a plurality of separable holding jigs configured to hold the looped conductor of the electric wire and the hole forming jig between the separable holding jigs from a direction perpendicular to an axis of the hole forming jig.
