So as to provide a motor-driven compressor that can reliably be fixed to a vehicle or the like and is capable of reliably protecting elements accommodated in a housing even upon reception of an external force due to a possible collision, a motor-driven compressor 11 of the invention comprises a compression mechanism 14 for compressing fluid, an electric motor 16 for driving the compression mechanism 14, a motor drive circuit for driving the electric motor 16, and a housing 13. The housing accommodates the compression mechanism 14, the electric motor 16, and the motor drive circuit 18. A cover 28 for protecting the housing 13 from an external force caused by a collision is fixed to the outside of the housing 13. The cover 28 is arranged via a clearance A with respect to the housing 13, and absorbs the external force applied to the cover 28 by the clearance A. |
