A flexible printed wiring board with crimp terminal includes: a flexible printed wiring board having a base film, a circuit including a metal foil provided on a surface of the base film, and a cover film attached to the base film so as to sandwich the circuit; and a crimp terminal with a plurality of crimping pieces that penetrates the flexible printed wiring board by being crimped and is bent to bite into a part of the circuit. A part of the circuit is exposed without the cover film being provided in a partial region of the flexible printed wiring board, and at least some of the crimping pieces are arranged in the partial region, and thus bite into a part of the circuit without penetrating the cover film.

A spring clip for a flat flexible cable includes a first beam and a second beam connected to the first beam and resiliently deflectable toward the first beam. The second beam has a first contact bend extending toward the first beam. The flat flexible cable is positioned between the first beam and the second beam and the first contact bend abuts a conductor exposed through an insulation material of the flat flexible cable to electrically connect the spring clip with the conductor.

A joint structure includes an end portion of the flat electric wire assembly, a terminal fitting, and solder. The flat electric wire assembly includes a conductive line, a first insulating layer covering the conductive line, and a second insulating layer covering a portion of the conductive line. The terminal fitting includes a joint portion that includes a receiving section on which the end portion is placed and blocking sections extending from the receiving section such that the end portion is between the blocking sections. The first insulating layer includes a first surface opposed to the receiving section and a second surface on which the conductive line is disposed. The conductive line includes an end portion different from the portion covered with the second insulating layer. The solder is disposed over the second surface. The blocking sections include surfaces over which the solder is not disposed.

A cable assembly comprises a cable and a conductive member. The cable extends in a longitudinal direction. The cable has a first location and a second location in the longitudinal direction. The cable comprises a conductive portion and an outer cover. The outer cover covers the conductive portion. The conductive member is attached with the cable. The conductive member has a first portion, a second portion and a planar portion. The first portion is positioned at the first location in the longitudinal direction. The first portion is crimped to the outer cover. The second portion is positioned at the second location in the longitudinal direction. The second portion is crimped to the conductive portion. The planar portion extends from the first location to the second location in the longitudinal direction.

An anti-corrosion terminal material including a base material made of copper or copper alloy and a coating film laminated on the base material: the coating film includes: a first coating film, provided with a zinc layer made of zinc alloy and a tin layer made of tin or tin alloy which are laminated in this order, and formed at a planned core contact part; and a second coating film including the tin layer but not comprising the zinc layer, which is provided at a planned contact part being a contact part when the terminal is formed: and the zinc layer has a thickness not less than 0.1 μm and not more than 5.0 μm and zinc concentration not less than 30% by mass and not more than 95% by mass, and has any one or more of nickel, iron, manganese, molybdenum, cobalt, cadmium, lead and tin as a balance.
