  • Patent number: 8098115
    Abstract: There is provided a noise eliminating wire harness capable of enhancing a noise elimination performance. In the wire harness 31, an intermediate portion of a sheath 34 of a wire 33 is removed to expose a conductor 35, thereby forming a conductor connection portion 36, and a capacitor 39 is directly connected to this conductor connection portion 36. The capacitor 39 is directly connected to the conductor connection portion 36 without using any wire serving as a branch wire. The capacitor 39 is connected to the conductor connection portion 36 in perpendicularly intersecting relation thereto. The capacitor 39 is connected to the wire 33 in such a condition that there is not provided any portion extending side by side with the wire 33.
