1. A terminal block configured to electrically relay inside and outside of a partition wall sealing a liquid, the terminal block comprising:
a housing disposed so as to penetrate the partition wall;
a bus bar inserted into a first through hole formed in the housing;
a seal member attached to the housing so as to seal a gap between the bus bar and the housing, and having a seal hole through which the bus bar is inserted; and
a holder assembled to the housing at a position outside the partition wall with respect to the seal member so as to prevent the seal member from coming off, and having a second through hole through which the bus bar is inserted,
wherein the bus bar extends through the first through hole, the seal hole, and the second through hole such that one end of the bus bar is disposed inside the partition wall and the other end of the bus bar is disposed outside the partition wall, and
wherein durability of a material constituting the housing to the liquid is better than durability of a material constituting the holder to the liquid.
