Abstract
A wiring board for connecting positive and negative electrode terminals of multiple battery cells includes an electrically insulating base material and laminated conductive patterns arranged in different layers, which are electrically connected by an interlayer connection member. The wiring includes multiple pair wiring portions, each having a positive electrode wiring section connected to the positive electrode terminal of a respective battery cell and a negative electrode wiring section connected to the negative electrode terminal of that battery cell. In each pair wiring portion, the positive and negative electrode wiring sections extend in parallel.
