Abstract
An electric compressor includes: a compression mechanism; a motor mechanism; an inverter; a housing accommodating the compression mechanism, the motor mechanism, and the inverter; and a power supplier. The power supplier includes a connector and a cable extending toward an outside of the housing. The connector includes a first protrusion extending toward the outside of the housing. The first protrusion includes an end surface that has an insertion hole into which the cable is inserted, and a side surface that cylindrically extends and is connected to the end surface. A second protrusion is formed integrally with the side surface and extends downward from the side surface in a gravity direction corresponding to a direction in which the gravity is applied to the housing. A water droplet having reached the insertion hole along the cable is guided from the insertion hole to the second protrusion along the end surface.
