A wiring harness is provided with a first wire member including a first terminal and a first wire and a protector for accommodating the first wire member. The protector includes a protector body, a bolt and a restricting portion. The protector body has a bottom wall extending in a length direction, two side walls projecting from both side edges of the bottom wall and facing each other, and an opening formed by the two side walls and facing the bottom wall. The bolt projects from the protector body and is inserted into a through hole of the terminal. The restricting portion covers only a part of the first wire member closer to a side opposite to a tip side of the first terminal than the through hole in the length direction, and restricts a movement of the first wire member in a projecting direction of the bolt.

A terminal block (1) with an elastic retracting fixation member, including an insulation base (10) having a cavity (13) and a cable insertion slot (14) communicating with the cavity (13), a cover member (20) covering the insulation base (10) and having a tool access hole (23), a conductive assembly (30) arranged in the cavity (13) and having a carrying member (32), and an elastic retracting fixation member (40) arranged corresponding to the tool access hole (23) and having an elastic element (41) and a fixation element (42), the elastic element (41) arranged between the fixation element (42) and the cover member (20), the fixation element (42) being operatively disengaged from the cover member (20) to attach to the carrying member (32) and retracting into the cover member (20) via a recovery force of the elastic element (41). Accordingly, it is able to prevent disengagement of the fixation member effectively.

Provided is a substrate unit including a case accommodating a circuit board; a bus bar electrically connected to the circuit board, and includes an extending portion extending out of the case; and an external thread portion for electrically connecting the extending portion to a connection terminal of a wire harness, the external thread portion including a shaft portion with an external thread, and a head portion that is noncircular, and protrudes at one end portion of the shaft portion in a radial direction of the shaft portion, wherein the case includes a fitting recess to which the head portion is fitted by sliding the external thread portion in a direction intersecting an axial direction of the external thread portion, and that has an abutment surface by which the head portion is stopped, and, at least on the two sides of the abutment surface, relief recesses that define a gap.

The invention relates to a cable lug (10, 10′, 10″, 10′″) having a connection region (9, 9″, 9′″) for connecting the cable lug (10, 10′, 10″, 10′″) to an electrical conductor (4) and having a contact part (11) for establishing contact with a terminal part (40) of an electrical system (42), in particular of an electrical system of a motor vehicle, the contact part (11) comprising a fastening opening (12) for guiding therethrough a fastening element (46) for fastening the cable lug (10, 10′, 10″, 10′″) to a terminal part (4), and wherein the contact part (11) comprises one or more further openings (13). The invention further relates to the use of the cable lug (10, 10′, 10″, 10′″), a contact element (2) with such a cable log (10, 10′, 10″, 10′″) as well as to a method for producing the same.
