Abstract

An electric wire includes a center conductor, and an insulation layer formed on an outer periphery of the center conductor. The center conductor includes a high tensile-strength fiber and a plurality of metal strands wound around the high tensile-strength fiber.

Claims

1. An electric wire, comprising:

a center conductor; and

an insulation layer formed on an outer periphery of the center conductor,

wherein the center conductor comprises a high tensile-strength fiber and a plurality of metal strands wound around the high tensile-strength fiber.

2. The electric wire according to claim 1, wherein the insulation layer comprises a solid material of a fluoropolymer, and

wherein the insulation layer is formed so as to be buried between the plurality of metal strands.

3. A harness, comprising:

the electric wire according to claim 1; and

a terminal component provided on at least one of end portions of the electric wire.

4. An electrical circuit, comprising a wiring comprising the electric wire according to claim 1.

5. A fabric, comprising:

a fabric material; and

the electric wire according to claim 1 that is sewn into the fabric material.

6. A garment, comprising the fabric according to claim 5 that is cut and sewn.

7. A sheet, comprising:

a sheet-shaped base material; and

the electric wire according to claim 1 that is sewn into the sheet-shaped base material.
