PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact and space-saving bus bar having a terminal protection part for protecting a turning fork-like terminal.SOLUTION: A bus bar 1 is housed in the frame of an electric connection box for automobiles and is used as a wiring member of the electric connection box. The bus bar is obtained by pressing a metal plate. The bus bar 1 is provided with a strip flat plate part 2, a plurality of tuning fork-like terminals 3 and planar terminals 4 projecting from one end 2a of the flat plate part 2 in the transverse direction, terminal protection parts 5 bent at right angle at both ends 2c, 2d in the longitudinal direction of the flat plate part 2, and projecting in the same direction as the tuning fork-like terminals 3, and a wire crimp part 7 projecting from the other end 2b in the transverse direction of the flat plate part 2. When the bus bar 1 collides against a foreign matter, the terminal protection parts 5 prevent the tuning fork-like terminals 3 and planar terminals 4 from butting directly against the foreign matter. |
