An electrical apparatus containing an adsorbent, includes a housing, an adsorbent cover, an adsorbent and a locating bolt. The housing is cylindrical and has at least one locating hole. The adsorbent cover is installed in the housing, and has an annular groove in a circumferential direction, with the locating hole being opposite the groove. An outer diameter of a groove edge is the same as an inner diameter of the housing, while the diameter of a middle part of the groove is less than the inner diameter of the housing. The adsorbent is placed in the groove. The locating bolt passes through the locating hole and extends into the groove. The electrical apparatus has a simple structure. Since installation on a flange is not needed, a flange on the housing that is connected to an adsorbent container is dispensed with. The cost of the adsorbent container and housing are reduced.
