Abstract
A capacitor includes a capacitor element having leads accommodated along with electrolyte solution in a metallic case, and a sealing plate that seals the opening of the metallic case. In the capacitor, a center axis of a threaded portion provided in a terminal block on the sealing plate is constituted to be parallel to a planar portion of the sealing plate. Hence, the center axis of the threaded portion is vertical to a circuit board when mounting the capacitor onto the circuit board. Thereby, a series of operation from the insertion to the tightening of the mounting screw is done very easily.
