WATER CUT-OFF STRUCTURE FOR ELECTRIC CABLE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a water cut-off structure for an electric cable capable of realizing complete water stopping at a low cost. SOLUTION: One electric wire 10 and the other electric wire 12 are connected to each other at a common pressure portion 14. The common pressure portion 14 is disposed inside a relay block 16 as a non-covering area. In a covering portion 30 of one electric cable 10, a partial cut portion 32 is provided within the relay block 16 and at a portion on the way to the common pressure portion 14. Even if water 34 leaks from a ground terminal 26 side to the inside of one electric wire 10, the partial cut portion 32 drains water (water 36), thus enabling complete water stopping at a low cost without increasing the number of parts.
