Abstract
A motor-driven compressor includes a terminal housing made of an electrically insulating material and accommodating therein an electrical connecting portion which includes a connecting terminal connecting to a conductive member and an electric wire. The compressor includes a first seal member and a second seal member to seal the inside of the terminal housing from the outside thereof. The terminal housing has a distance-increasing portion that increases the communicating distance from a compressor housing to the electrical connecting portion in the terminal housing. The distance-increasing portion allows the pressures in the terminal housing and the compressor housing to be equalized.
