A structure and method are provided for accommodating elongated electric wires in a protector in a parallel array. The structure includes a plurality of elongated electric wires to be arranged in parallel, a trough-like receiving member for accommodating the elongated electric wires in a parallel condition, and a cover member for covering the open upper face of the receiving member. The elongated electric wires are held by a clamp member for arraying the elongated electric wires in the required parallel condition. The clamp members are positioned at required distances along the length of the elongated electric wires, and engaging parts for positioning the clamp members are provided in the receiving member, so that the elongated electric wires are accommodated in parallel condition. The method includes providing a protector having a trough-shaped receiving member, providing at least one clamp member configured to clampingly receive a plurality of electric wires in parallel, first clamping the plurality of electric wires in the at least one clamp member, and then inserting the at least one clamp member at a predetermined location in the receiving member to form the parallel array.
