Abstract
A connection module includes a FPC, bus bars connected to the FPC and connecting the electrode terminals of power storage elements that are adjacent to each other, and a resin protector holding the bus bars and the FPC. The FPC includes a FPC body member and a first deformable portion that connects the FPC body member and the bus bars. The resin protector includes a FPC holding portion to which the FPC body member is fixed, movable bus bar holding portions to which the bus bars are fixed, respectively, and second deformable portions that connect the FPC holding portion and the movable bus bar holding portions. The first deformable portion and the second deformable portion connect the bus bars and the movable bus bar holding portions to the FPC body member and the FPC holding portion, respectively, such that the bus bars and the movable bus bar holding portions are movable with respect to the FPC body member and the FPC holding portion.
