An electric motor has: a rotor; a stator; a housing, an opening for opening the storage space upward, and a notch that is concaved downward from an edge surface surrounding the opening; a lead wire connected to the stator; a partition wall that is provided on the inside of the notch in order to separate a sealing space for injecting a sealant and a space outside the sealing space from each other, and has a through-hole for allowing the lead wire to be extended to the outside of the sealing space; a cover that can be attached to the housing from above; and an elastic member that is more elastic than the partition wall and disposed under the partition wall. An end surface of the partition wall is disposed on or above a plane surface including the edge surface of the housing.
