Abstract
A high-voltage variable resistor unit including a variable resistance circuit board and a fixed resistance circuit board, and capable of being down-sized and exhibiting satisfactory dielectric strength. A variable resistance circuit board which is provided on a front surface thereof with a variable resistance circuit pattern is received in a board receiving chamber of an insulating casing. A lid member made of an insulating resin material is arranged so as to close an opening of the board receiving chamber while keeping a front surface thereof facing a rear surface of the variable resistance circuit board. A fixed resistance circuit board is fixed on a rear surface of the lid member while keeping a rear surface thereof facing the rear surface of the lid member. A space for charging an insulating resin material therein is defined between a circuit board and the rear surface of the lid member. The lid member is provided on the rear surface thereof with both a creeping distance increase recess and a creeping distance increase projection in a manner to surround the circuit board.
