Benefits of technology

As described in the present invention, since the fire-extinguishing agent is sprayed not from a plurality of nozzles but from a plurality of fire-extinguishing agent spray holes provided in the first wall, a plurality of nozzles and shutoff valves are not required. As a result, the size of the electric power equipment can be considerably reduced.
Furthermore, the electronic device of the present invention employs the above-mentioned electric power equipment as a power source. Thus, the safety of the electronic device to be used can be enhanced.
Furthermore, power supply element inspection equipment of the present invention employs the above-mentioned electric power equipment as inspection equipment of a power supply element. Thus, the safety of the power supply element inspection equipment can be enhanced.

Problems solved by technology

The above-mentioned conventional example has a problem that the size of the electric power equipment becomes larger.
The use of the plurality of nozzles and shutoff valves in this way causes the size of the electric power equipment to increase.
