  • Patent number: 10490340
    Abstract: A reactor includes a core body including an outer peripheral iron core, at least three iron cores contacting to an internal surface of the outer peripheral iron core, and coils wound on the iron cores. A gap is formed between one and another of the iron cores adjacent each other, so as to be magnetically connectable therethrough. The reactor has a terminal base connected to cables through current carrying portions, as well as connected to the coils, and an electrical shock prevention cover for covering the terminal base. The electrical shock prevention cover has openings for passing the cables connected to the terminals therethrough. The terminal base has a plate that blocks at least a part of each opening to prevent a finger from touching the current carrying portion while the cables are connected to the terminals and which is detachable in accordance with the thickness of the cables.
