Electric junction box and method for mounting a bus bar in same

摘要

To reduce the number of components contained in an electric junction box, an electric junction box containing a bus bar therein includes a connecting area formed integrally on a portion of the bus bar while a complimentary connecting area provided on the lower case cooperates with the connecting area of the bus bar. The bus bar is arranged on the upper surface of the lower case with the connecting areas firmly fastened to each other, with the bus bar being directly fastened to the lower case. The upper cover is placed on and fastened to the lower case while the bus bar is connected to the lower case, thereby making the use of an upper case unnecessary.
