Abstract
A liquid surface sensing device is installed in a fuel tank having an opening in a ceiling part. The opening is closed by a flange with a gasket constituted by an elastomer providing a seal between the flange and a peripheral edge of the opening. The liquid surface sensing device being assembled to the flange includes a sensing unit disposed vertically below the flange and sensing a liquid surface of a liquid, a lead wire connecting the sensing unit to an external device via the flange, and a guide bending the lead wire extending diagonally downward from the flange to form a valley portion to direct the lead wire diagonally upward.
