Abstract
Abstract A wire cover is for use in guiding and collecting a plurality of wires at one end thereof. The plurality of wires extend from a second connector connected to a first connector. The second connector is connected to the first connector through a clamping bolt. The second connector has a pillar-like supporting member where the clamping bolt is threadedly mounted. The wire cover has a base and a pair of side walls extending from the base. Engaging members are formed on the side walls for engaging with the second connector. A projecting wall is projected from the base. The projecting wall has a body portion and a tip portion. The body portion is larger in width than the pillar-like supporting member. The tip portion is tapered in shape.
