Abstract:
A relay terminal (10) made of copper or copper alloy and configured to join an aluminum wire (20) and a copper wire (30) by being electrically connected to the aluminum wire (20) and the copper wire (30) includes a first barrel portion (11) to be caulked and crimped to an aluminum core (21) of the aluminum wire (20) made of aluminum or aluminum alloy, which is a metal different from copper or copper alloy constituting the relay terminal (10), a second barrel portion (12) to be caulked and crimped to a copper core (31) of the copper wire (30), a bottom plate (13) configured to link the first barrel portion (11) and the second barrel portion (12), and a projecting portion (41) (water drainage portion (40)) provided on the bottom plate (13) and configured to restrict the intrusion of water from the second barrel portion (12) toward the first barrel portion (11).
