Abstract

Since inductance due to wiring to a Y capacitor is large, it is necessary to arrange the Y capacitor near a bus bar, and there is no degree of freedom in arranging the Y capacitor. Directions of currents flowing through a positive electrode side wiring 301 and a negative electrode side wiring 302 in a multi-core cable 300 are a direction 301a from a bus bar positive electrode terminal 114 toward the Y capacitor positive electrode terminal 201, and a direction 302b from a bus bar negative electrode terminal 115 toward the Y capacitor negative electrode terminal 202, respectively. On the other hand, a direction of a current flowing through a ground wiring 303 is a direction 302b from a Y capacitor ground terminal 203 toward a ground terminal 116. A magnetic flux generated by the currents flowing through the positive electrode side wiring 301 and the negative electrode side wiring 302 in the multi-core cable 300 and a magnetic flux generated by the current flowing through the ground wiring 303 in the multi-core cable 300 cancel each other out, and the inductance can be kept small.
