Abstract
A sealed battery includes a battery case within which an electrode body is housed; a lid that joins to an open portion of the battery case; a conducting member that is inserted through the lid and that electrically connects the electrode body to an external terminal provided on the lid; and an insulating plate that is interposed between the lid and the conducting member, and that insulates the lid from the conducting member. A protruding portion is formed, in a position able to be visually recognized from outside while the insulating plate is in a state tightly fixed between the lid and the conducting member, on at least one of an abutting surface of the insulating plate that abuts against the lid, and an abutting surface of the insulating plate that abuts against the conducting member.
