Electromagnetic relay

An electromagnetic relay, comprising:

• a contact device including a plurality of contact sets, each of the plurality of contact sets including a first fixed terminal, a second fixed terminal, and a movable contact piece, the first fixed terminal including a first fixed contact, the second fixed terminal including a second fixed contact spaced apart from the first fixed contact in a first direction, the movable contact piece including a first movable contact and a second movable contact, the first movable contact facing the first fixed contact in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, the second movable contact facing the second fixed contact in the second direction, the plurality of contact sets being arranged in the second direction;
• and
• a drive device configured to move the movable contact pieces of the plurality of contact sets in the second direction;
• wherein the first fixed terminal includes:
• a first conductive portion including the first fixed contact;
• a second conductive portion connected to the first conductive portion, the second conductive portion arranged, at least in part, laterally relative to the movable contact piece in the first direction;
• and
• a third conductive portion connected to the second conductive portion, the third conductive portion extending in a direction from the first movable contact toward the second movable contact.
