A plurality of second feed terminals provided in the image heating device in contact with the second electrode group. The first and second electrode groups are disposed on the same side of a midpoint of the substrate in a longitudinal direction. The second electrode group is disposed closer to the midpoint than the first electrode group in the longitudinal direction. The first and second electrode groups are disposed with a gap between the first and second electrode groups in the longitudinal direction.
