An in-vehicle power conversion device includes a drive unit, a casing and a plurality of busbars. The drive unit converts and transmits electric power. The casing includes electrical input-output parts and a main body. The main body includes a housing portion that houses the drive unit, and a lid body that closes the housing portion. The busbars electrically connect the drive unit and the electrical input-output parts of the casing to and from which electric power is inputted and outputted. The electrical input-output parts are routed outside of the casing. The busbars have heat-dissipating portions that are arranged along the casing to transfer heat to the casing outside of the housing portion.

A busbar system comprises an electrically conductive busbar having multiple ridges that project from a first side of the busbar. Each ridge defines a channel having an opening on a second side of the busbar. Interior facing surfaces of each ridge that define the channel are substantially smooth and/or free of protrusions or teeth prior to the ridge being externally crimped. The busbar system further comprises multiple electrically conductive electrical contacts having a substantially broad and thin configuration, wherein one or more of the electrical contacts are secured within each channel of the busbar by the ridge being externally crimped by a tool having surfaces that include one or more protrusions.
