Abstract
A relay includes a fixed terminal, a movable contact piece, a holder, a drive shaft, a contact case, a magnetic field generation member, and an inner member. The drive shaft is connected to the holder on a side close to the first end of the drive shaft. The magnetic field generation member is arranged around the contact case and is configured to generate a magnetic field in which an arc generated between the fixed contact and the movable contact extends in a lateral direction of the movable contact piece. The inner member includes a rotation preventing portion for restricting rotation of the holder around the drive shaft. The rotation preventing portion is arranged so as to contact the holder at a position closer to a second end of the drive shaft than the movable contact piece and closer to the drive shaft than the movable contact.
