Abstract
A watertight and leak-proof junction box for use, for example, in vehicles such as automobiles, and a process of assembling such a junction box are provided. The wiring board assembly comprising a plurality of insulating plates, wiring conductors strips and electric contacts formed by raising the free ends of the strips so as to project from the outer surface of the wiring plate pile which is embedded in an insulating resin through molding to form a resin-embedded wiring board assembly prior to assembling the junction box, and then the resin-embedded wiring board assembly joined with a connector support board having connector bodies for receiving the terminals of electrical units and/or wire harnesses is contained in a watertight case. A leak preventing wall is formed so as to surround the base portion of each electric contacts, so that the flow of leak current between the adjacent contacts is prevented even if water intrudes into the watertight case and spreads over the outer surface of the wiring board assembly.
