The present invention is to provide a plate member which can improve material yield. The plate member forms a bus bar attached to a box main body of an electric junction box and includes a first terminal portion, a second terminal portion, and a connection coupling the first terminal portion to the second terminal portion. The plate member includes a first terminal portion equivalent corresponding to the first terminal portion, a second terminal portion equivalent corresponding to the second terminal portion, and arranged with a space against the first terminal portion equivalent along a longitudinal direction of a first terminal equivalent, and a connection equivalent corresponding to the connection. The connection equivalent couples the first terminal equivalent to the second terminal equivalent so that longitudinal directions of the first and second terminal equivalents are arranged parallel to each other.

A bus bar attached to a box main body of an electrical junction box includes: a first terminal portion; a second terminal portion; and a coupling portioncoupling the first and second terminal portions, and made of a plate metal member. The plate metal memberincludes: a first corresponding portioncorresponding to the first terminal portion; a second corresponding portioncorresponding to the second terminal portionand provided parallel to the first corresponding portionwith a gap; and a coupling corresponding portioncorresponding to the coupling portion. The coupling corresponding portioncouples both ends adjacent to each other of the first and second corresponding portions

An electrical junction box includes a junction-box body having at least an outlet for discharging a liquid inside thereof to an outside thereof; and a bracket provided between the junction-box body and a vehicle-body panel. The bracket is adapted to attach the junction-box body to the vehicle-body panel such that the bracket resides in a lower space relative to the junction-box body in a vertical direction. The bracket includes a throughhole communicating with the outlet and adapted to guide the liquid from the outlet to the outside. The bracket may include a plurality of ribs spaced from each other and upstanding in a shape of a plate toward the vehicle-body panel such that the outlet is provided between the ribs. The ribs may be connected to each other via a foot of the bracket upstanding in a shape of a plate toward the vehicle-body panel.
