Further, in the examples of FIGS. 35, 36 and 38, the ferrite core 30 is hung from the printed circuit board 43, but in another air conditioner or power conversion device, the ferrite core is above the printed circuit board 43. It may be necessary to have a structure in which the 30s are arranged apart from each other. In that case, a structure in which the fixing member 57 is erected from the housing or the printed circuit board 43 to fix the ferrite core 30 can be adopted.
  • FIG. 39 is a cross-sectional perspective view showing a configuration example of a cable according to the ninth embodiment.

  • the conductor plate 45 (or the magnetic shield 47) has a structure in which radiation noise is less likely to occur.
  • the radiation noise standard is very small, such as 0 dB ⁇ V at 120 kHz. This standard corresponds to the electric power when the noise passing through the 120 kHz bandpass filter is measured by using the EMI receiver. Since the standard of radiation noise is very small, noise due to such secondary radiation can be a problem. Further, in air conditioners and other electronic devices, resin is often used as a part of a metal housing. Therefore, the shielding effect of the housing may not be obtained.
