Abstract
A power converter includes a converter casing made of an assembly of a first case body and a second case body. The first case body has a bottom plate. The second case body has a top plate. Side plates are arranged between the top plate and the bottom plate. A capacitor is disposed in the converter casing and includes a capacitor casing and a capacitor device which is sealed with potting resin so as to have a potting surface through which the potting resin is exposed outside the capacitor casing. The capacitor is fixed on the bottom plate with the potting surface oriented perpendicular to a normal direction of the bottom plate. A connector is provided which mechanically connects the bottom plate and the top plate and is located away from the side plates, thereby enhancing the suppression of mechanical vibration of the capacitor on the bottom plate.
