Abstract:
A projected end of a bus bar (20), including projection portions (21A, 22B, 23C, 24D, 25E, 26F), and a recessed connector (30), including a cylindrical portion (43A), a recess portion (31B), a cylindrical portion (42C), a recess portion (31D), a cylindrical portion (41E), and a recess portion (31F), are engaged with each other, thereby enabling the bus bar (20) and the connector (30) to electrically connect with each other. That is, only inserting the bus bar (20) into the connector (30) makes an electrical connection possible, so it is not necessary, for example, to fasten the terminal with a screw. Therefore, this facilitates the connection between the bus bar (20) and the connector (30).
