A coil wire for a coil assembly of a rotating electrical machine is provided such that sufficient space in braiding is secured when coil-wire-bundles bundling a plurality of the coil wires are braided. Each of the coil wires has a predetermined length, a plurality of straight portions and a plurality of turn portions, the straight portions linearly-extend in parallel in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the overall length direction of the coil wires, the turn portions connect two of the straight portions to be adjacent via first-kinked-portions and second-kinked-portions, the first-kinked-portions are kinked in a second direction substantially perpendicular to both the first direction and the length direction of the coil wires, the second-kinked-portions are kinked in a third direction substantially opposite to the second direction so that the turn portions are formed in a wave-shape in the length direction of said coil wires.
