Abstract
A rectifier has a pair of heat dissipating plates at the positive (+) side and the negative (-) side which constitute a full-wave rectification circuit and are positioned in mutual confrontation with a small gap between them, and an insulating material to electrically insulate the both heat dissipating plates. A recessed portion is formed in each of the mutually opposed parts of the both heat dissipating plates; a noise-preventing capacitor element is housed in a closed space defined by the recessed portions to make an outer covering for the capacitor, and the capacitor element and each of the heat dissipating plates are electrically connected.
