Abstract
A junction box comprises small size standard boxes. The small size standard box includes a main casing that contains many longitudinal bus bars disposed in parallel with one another at a given interval in distance therein, and male and female coupling portions provided on the outer opposite side surfaces of the main casing. Plural small size standard boxes are juxtaposed together in accordance with different kinds of automobile vehicles by interconnecting the male and female coupling portions successively. A lower casing member is attached to the main casing. The size of the lower casing member depends on the number of the standard boxes to be coupled for a special purpose. The lower casing member is provided with an attachment portion for a vehicle body projecting from the member.
