Abstract

This wiring system is provided with a multipurpose wiring member including a multipurpose circuit and a multipurpose connector to which the multipurpose circuit is connected, and is provided with only one among: a first-purpose wiring member including a first-purpose circuit and a first-purpose connector to which the first-purpose circuit is connected, said first-purpose wiring member electrically connecting the first-purpose circuit with a first electrical component; and a second-purpose wiring member including a second-purpose circuit and a second-purpose connector to which the second-purpose circuit is connected, said second-purpose wiring member electrically connecting the second-purpose circuit with a second electrical component of a different variety from the first electrical component. If the first-purpose connector is connected with the multipurpose connector, the multipurpose circuit is connected with the first-purpose circuit, and if the second-purpose connector is connected with the multipurpose connector, the multipurpose circuit is connected with the second-purpose circuit. The wiring system is installed in a vehicle such that the multipurpose wiring member is more difficult to remove from the vehicle than the first-purpose wiring member and the second-purpose wiring member.
