<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reactor which maintains a sensor measuring a physical amount, such as a temperature, of the reactor at a proper position, and to provide a converter and an electric power conversion apparatus which include the reactor. <P>SOLUTION: A reactor 1 includes: a coil 2; a magnetic core 3 in which the coil 2 is disposed; and a case 4 housing an assembly 10 of the coil 2 and the magnetic core 3. The case 4 includes a bottom plate part and a side wall part 41A enclosing around the assembly 10, and the side wall part 41A is formed by an insulative resin. In the side wall part 41A, a hook part 43a, on which wiring 71 connecting with a sensor 7, such as a temperature sensor, measuring a physical amount of the reactor 1, is integrally formed by a resin forming the side wall part 41A. Hooking and fixing the wiring 71 on the hooking part 43a prevents the sensor 7 from being displaced and being come off when the wiring 71 is pulled and enables the sensor 7 to be maintained in a proper position. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
