Abstract
A wire harness includes sharable housings Ha to Hg which enable insertion of terminals either insulation displacement terminals Ta and crimp terminals Tb; a first sub-harness formed by inserting the insulation displacement terminals Ta into the sharable housings Ha to Hg; a second sub-harness formed in the same manner as the first sub-harness ; and an after-insertion electric wire WR having the crimp terminals Tb crimped at both ends. The crimp terminals Tb of the after-insertion electric wire WR is inserted into a sharable housing H, thereby connecting the sub-harnesses and . The crimp terminals Tb are used for only terminal hardware to be connected to the after-insertion electric wire WR which requires adhesion strength between an electric wire and terminal hardware. The majority of remaining terminal hardware pieces are embodied as the insulation displacement terminals Ta.
