ELECTRICAL CONNECTION DEVICE AND LIGHTING EQUIPMENT USING THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrical connection device that enhances workability when a load and a power source device are electrically connected to each other, and lighting equipment using the same.SOLUTION: An electrical connection device 4 has a connection terminal 413, plural connectors 43 and a base member 41, and electrically connects plural loads and a power source device to supply power from the power source device to each of the plural loads. The connection terminal 413 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the power source device, and the plural connectors 43 are electrically connected to the connection terminal 413 through an electrical path. The base member 41 is designed in a plate-like shape, and the connection terminal 413, and the plural connectors 43 are mounted therein to form the electrical path. The electrical connection device 4 is configured so that the base members 41 are disposed at the connection positions to the plural loads, whereby each of the plural connectors 43 is electrically connected to the corresponding load of the plural loads.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10 【課題】負荷と電源装置とを電気的に接続する際の作業性を向上させた電気接続装置及びそれを用いた照明器具を提供する。【解決手段】電気接続装置４は、接続端子４１３と、複数のコネクタ４３と、ベース部材４１とを備え、複数の負荷と電源装置とを電気的に接続し、電源装置から複数の負荷の各々に電源を供給する。接続端子４１３は、電源装置の出力端子と電気的に接続され、複数のコネクタ４３は、電気的経路を介して接続端子４１３と電気的に接続されている。ベース部材４１は、板状であって、接続端子４１３及び複数のコネクタ４３が実装され且つ電気的経路が形成されている。この電気接続装置４は、複数の負荷への接続位置にベース部材４１を配置することで、複数のコネクタ４３の各々が複数の負荷のうち対応する負荷と電気的に接続されるように構成されている。【選択図】図１０
