Inductor, inductor with circuit board, and electrical junction box

An inductor, comprising:

• a magnetic core;
• a conduction path penetrating the magnetic core;
• a pedestal portion including a core holding portion that holds the magnetic core, and a support portion that supports, when placed on a circuit board, an electronic component at a height at which the electronic component can be accommodated on the circuit board and disposed between the circuit board and the core holding portion;
• a shield portion having a bottom wall and a side wall orthogonal to the bottom wall so as to define a seat, the bottom wall spaced apart from the circuit board and disposed between the circuit board and the magnetic core, and that shields a magnetic field generated by flow of electricity in the conduction path, wherein the core holding portion is disposed within the seat of the shield portion;
• and
• a conductive cover portion having a top wall and a side wall that covers a top and a side of the magnetic core, the side wall of the conductive cover portion is spaced apart from the side wall of the shield portion.
