Abstract
An active matrix substrate for a liquid crystal panel of an FFS mode includes a plurality of connecting units in a connecting region in order to electrically connect a common electrode, a first common main wiring, and a second common main wiring. The connecting unit includes a contact holethat connects a connecting electrodeand the first common main wiring, the connecting electrodeformed integrally with the common electrode, and a contact holethat connects the connecting electrodeand the second common main wiring. An amorphous Si filmof the second common main wiringis formed larger than a main conductor partof the second common main wiringin a position of the contact hole, and is covered with SiNx filmsthat are protective insulating films. This prevents the connecting electrode from having a step disconnection at a pattern end of the common main wiring.
