Abstract
Provided is a wire harness in which waterproofness of an exposed conductor portion can be ensured, and even when at least one of insulated wires is exposed to a high temperature, a rubber stopper of a waterproofing terminal can be kept from coming off. An outer peripheral surface of an exposed conductor portion where partially exposed conductors of a plurality of insulated wires are joined together, and outer peripheral surfaces of coating material end portions adjacent to the exposed conductor portion, is continuously covered with a waterproofing agent. A gap between adjacent insulated wires is sealed with the waterproofing agent at the coating material end portions adjacent to the exposed conductor portion. At least one insulated wire of the plurality of insulated wires has a flow path through which gas flows, the flow path being created in gaps between strands that constitute a conductor of the insulated wire.
