Abstract

An air conditioner includes an indoor unit (1) and an electrical unit (8) accommodated in the indoor unit (1) on a front side thereof. The electrical unit (8) includes a base (8b), a substrate (8c) mounted on the base (8b) and having electrical components placed thereon, and a cover (8d) for covering the base (8b). The cover (8d) is rotatably mounted to the base (8b). Although the indoor unit (1) is generally installed high in a room, the rotatable connection of the cover (8d) to the base (8b) enhances the workability during maintenance.
