Abstract
A distribution unit has a power circuit section including a plurality of bus bars with electronic parts mounted on at least some of the bus bars. Ends of specific bus bars are projected from a main body section of the power circuit section in a adjacent manner to form fuse connection terminals. Each of the fuse connection terminals has a tip placement part to place a fuse terminal. An insulating case made of an insulating material for covering the power circuit section is opened in the projection direction of the fuse connection terminals to enable the fuse terminal to be placed in the tip placement part of the fuse connection terminal from the outside of the insulating case. The insulating case has a short-circuit prevention section intervening between the fuse connection terminals for preventing a short circuit between the fuse connection terminals.
