Abstract
A module unit includes a main body attached to a plurality of battery cells, a bus bar provided on the main body to electrically connect the battery cells, and a temperature sensor retained to the main body to measure a temperature of at least one of the battery cells. The main body has a through hole. The temperature sensor includes a retaining portion which is retained to an edge part of the through hole from a first side of the main body facing to the battery cells after the retaining portion passes through the through hole from a second side of the main body opposite to the first side with respect to the main body, and an attaching portion which has an operation part at an end part thereof and is formed so as not to pass through the through hole. When the main body is attached to the battery cells, the temperature sensor comes into contact with the at least one battery cell.
