Abstract
The power conversion device includes a plurality of semiconductor modules, each having a main body section including a switching element therein. In a module unit, a positive module and a negative module are disposed such that main surfaces of the respective main body sections oppose each other. A positive terminal, a first intermediate terminal, a negative terminal, and a second intermediate terminal project in a Z direction perpendicular to X direction in which the positive module and the negative module oppose each other. A first vector Vfrom the positive terminal towards the first intermediate terminal and a second vector Vfrom the second intermediate terminal towards the negative terminal are configured such that these vector components Vand Vin a Y direction perpendicular to both the X and Z directions are opposite to each other.
