Abstract
An electrical unit includes a casing, a cooling channel, a second inverter, and a heat transfer member. The casing contains a battery. The cooling channel is formed in the casing and adjacent to the battery or a first inverter. A cooling medium flows in the cooling channel. The second inverter is disposed in the casing apart from the cooling channel. The heat transfer member extends from the cooling channel or an outer wall of the cooling channel to the second inverter.
