Abstract: A bus bar as electric conductor is formed to a shape which follows a predetermined circuit path including bent portions, by bending a metal-made plate-like member spreading in a single plane. The plate-like member is made as a single integral member and comprises a first elongate portion formed linearly and constituting a first path portion of the bus bar including the bent portions by being bent from the state in which the first elongate portion lies in a plane. The plate-like member further comprises a second elongate portion formed linearly and constituting a second path portion of the bus bar and a tying portion tying the first elongate portion and the second elongate portion so that an extending direction of the first elongate portion makes a first predetermined angle with an extending direction of the second elongate portion. The tying portion is bent so that a plane including the second elongate portion makes a second predetermined angle with a plane including the first elongate portion.
