The sealed terminal is arranged in the compressor housing and electrically connects the inverter and the electric motor. Further, the sealed terminal includes a terminal pin, which is formed from a conductive material, a terminal holder, and an insulative body. The cluster block includes an insertion hole into which the terminal pin is inserted. The metal brace electrically connects the terminal pin to the lead wire. The cluster block includes a protrusion projecting around the insertion hole and surrounding part of the insulative body. The insertion hole has an inside diameter larger than an outside diameter of the terminal pin.
