Electrical apparatus and method of manufacturing same

A method of manufacturing an electrical apparatus,

• the electrical apparatus comprising a first welded member and a second welded member that are welded together, the first welded member having a first metal part and a first resin part that covers part of the first metal part, the second welded member having a second metal part and a second resin part that covers part of the second metal part, the first metal part having a first standing terminal portion exposed from the first resin part and standing in a standing direction, the second metal part having a second standing terminal portion exposed from the second resin part and standing in the same standing direction as the first standing terminal portion,
• the method comprising the steps of:
• arranging the first welded member and the second welded member so as to have (i) the first resin part and the second resin part partially overlapping each other in the standing direction and (ii) both a welded portion of the first standing terminal portion and a welded portion of the second standing terminal portion located within a projection region of the first resin part and the second resin part in the standing direction;
• placing a surrounding jig around the first standing terminal portion and the second standing terminal portion so as to surround at least the welded portions of the first and second standing terminal portions from directions perpendicular to the standing direction;
• and
• welding the welded portions of the first and second standing terminal portions, which are surrounded by the surrounding jig, to each other to form a weld therebetween.
