Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a power module capable of realizing a superior heat radiation property while satisfying a high insulation property. A power module according to the present invention includes: a conductor plate to which a switching element is connected; a heat radiation plate which is disposed to face the conductor plate; an insulating member which is disposed between the conductor plate and the heat radiation plate; and a conductive intermediate conductor which is disposed in the insulating member in a state of being electrically insulated from the conductor plate and the heat radiation plate, wherein the intermediate conductor has a communication region which communicates between the insulating member disposed on the side of the conductor plate with respect to the intermediate conductor and the insulating member disposed on the side of the heat radiation plate with respect to the intermediate conductor.
