Abstract
A junction box disposed between a dash panel (P1) of a vehicle body and an installment panel (P2) has a plurality of boxes (11, 12) removably connected to each other by overlapping the boxes (11, 12) on each other. A fuse (30, 31) and/or a relay (41) accommodation portion is provided on one surface of each of the boxes (11, 12). In this construction, in an overlapped state, same-side surfaces of the fuse (30, 31) and/or relay (41) accommodation portions of the boxes (11, 12) are exposed to the outside. Internal circuits of the overlapped boxes are connected to each other through a connector (26, 45) a relay terminal or bolted terminal.
