Abstract
A converter includes a diode module including a diode bridge disposed inside a module case; and a body case including an opening in a placement face. The module case includes a counter face facing the placement face and a noncounter face, with a breakage prevention structure being disposed on at least one of the counter face or the noncounter face. When the counter face is where the breakage prevention structure is disposed, the breakage prevention structure entirely covers the counter face. When the noncounter face is where the breakage prevention structure is disposed, the noncounter face where the breakage prevention structure is disposed is a noncounter placement face with a largest area among exterior wall faces of the module case, and the noncounter placement face including an area farther from the placement face than a middle of the noncounter placement face is as a nonplacement area.
