Abstract

An electric wire with a terminal connector includes an electric wire and a female terminal connector crimped onto a core wire exposed at the electric wire. A female terminal connector has a wire barrel having a surface to be applied to the core wire. The surface has a plurality of recesses formed therein. Each recess has an opening edge. The opening edge of the recess includes first opening edges that are parallel to each other. The space between the recesses adjacent to each other in the extending direction of the first opening edge is set narrower than the space between the recesses adjacent to each other in the extending direction of the electric wire.
