Abstract
A power storage module is formed by superimposing a pair of end plates at opposite ends in the stacking direction of a plurality of power storage cells that are stacked in the stacking direction. The pair of end plates are connected by a frame holding an insulator between itself and the power storage cells. Condensed water occurring on the surface of the power storage cells could contact the end plate. There is thus a possibility that a liquid junction will be formed; when the power storage module is in a mounted state the insulator includes a first rib extending in a direction, condensed water attached to the insulator cannot flow toward the end plate due to it being blocked by the first rib, thus preventing the power storage cell from forming a liquid junction with the end plate via the condensed water.
