• an electric motor disposed in the housing;
• a motor driving circuit disposed in the housing and including a circuit board and an electronic component mounted on the circuit board;
• a bus bar configured to supply electric power from an external power source to the circuit board;
• and
• a shield plate provided between the electronic component and the bus bar for preventing transmission of electromagnetic noise;
• wherein the shield plate has a bolt hole through which a bolt is inserted,
• wherein an intervening portion is made of a resin and interposed between the bus bar and the shield plate to ensure electric insulation therebetween,
• wherein the bus bar, the intervening portion, and the shield plate are substantially enclosed over top and bottom portions thereof by a resin member,
• wherein a part of the intervening portion on a side thereof opposite from the shield plate and/or a part of the bus bar on a side thereof opposite from the shield plate is exposed through the resin member without being covered with the resin member, and
