ABSTRACT:
A ground wire connecting structure has a joint unit that is mounted to an oil tank. The joint unit has a base body to which bus bars are attached. Connector sections accommodating ground terminals are connected to the bus bars. The joint unit is coupled to a ground surface that is defined by the oil tank. The base body and the ground surface are made of a metal, such as an aluminum alloy. The base body has a contact portion for surface contact with the ground surface. Connector sections, to which external ground wires are fixed, are connected to the external ground wires and the ground terminals. As such, the external ground wires and the ground surface are electrically coupled with each other. The contact portion between the base body and the ground surface is sealed with an O-ring.
