Electronic component unit
View Patent ↗An electronic component unit includes a housing. The housing includes a housing space that houses an electronic component. The housing space is divided into a plurality of divided spaces by a central wall-shaped part protruding from a bottom of the housing space. The bottom defines a lower side of the housing space in the vertical direction. The central wall-shaped part has a connecting portion-fitting part to which a connecting part of an electric wire is fitted. For each of the divided spaces, the bottom has a short side direction tilted surface that is tilted from the central wall-shaped part toward the lower side in the vertical direction in a state where the housing is installed at an installation position, and a drain hole formed at a lower end of the short side direction tilted surface in the vertical direction.
