An exterior end portion cap is configured to be attached to an electrically conductive path and an exterior member. The exterior end portion cap includes an external exposure portion having a first blocking portion, an internal insertion portion having a second block portion, and an electrically conductive path housing recess portion formed to extend across the external exposure portion and the internal insertion portion. The first blocking portion has a planar portion configured to abut against the exterior member. The second blocking portion has holding piece portions that are deformable to wind around the electrically conductive path circumferentially. The electrically conductive path housing recess portion is formed into a concave portion that is so deep that a part of an outer surface of the electrically conductive path is pressed against an inner surface of the exterior member.

Exterior end portion cap and wire harness

An electrical connection box includes a housing having a temporary fixing projection. The temporary fixing projection includes a locking portion and a plate spring portion. The locking portion is provided with a locking claw projecting toward an outside in a radial direction. The plate spring portion includes a flat surface. In a temporary fixing state where the temporary fixing projection is inserted into a temporary fixing hole of an attachment panel, a locking surface of the locking claw of the locking portion faces a facing surface in an insertion direction. In the temporary fixing state, the plate spring portion is elastically deformed toward an inside in the radial direction. The flat surface of the plate spring portion is in contact with a contact surface and applies, to the attachment panel, a restoring force toward the outside in the radial direction.

Electrical connection box

A battery positive cover () is provided for a battery terminal and a wire harness. The battery positive cover () has inclined portions () that can be pressed from an outer side of a sectionally U-shaped wire harness-mounting part () toward the inner side thereof. The inclined portions () project from opposed facing tips at an entry (B) of the wire harness-mounting part () and incline towards the inner side of the wire harness-mounting part (). A wall (C,D) of the wire harness-mounting part () can be elastically deformed from a holding position to an open position.
