Abstract
An insulated electric wire includes a conductor in which elemental wires made of a metal material are twisted together; and an insulation covering that covers an outer circumference of the conductor. The insulated electric wire includes: an exposed portion in which the insulation covering is removed from the outer circumference of the conductor; a covered portion in which the insulation covering covers the outer circumference of the conductor, the exposed portion and the covered portion being provided adjacent to each other in a longitudinal axis direction; and a water-stopping portion in which gaps between the elemental wires in the exposed portion are filled with a water-stopping agent. In an area enclosed by the surface of the water-stopping agent, the surface of the elemental wires is in contact with only the water-stopping agent or another elemental wire.
