    摘要: A bus bar capable of effectively securing safety of a battery module when an overcurrent is generated includes: a main body portion that includes a first metal, has a stepped structure, in which an outer surface of the main body portion in an outward direction of the battery module is recessed in an inward direction, formed in one region, and is configured to be electrically connected to at least one secondary battery; a current breaking portion that is inserted into a space formed by the stepped structure and includes a second metal having a melting point relatively lower than a melting point of the first metal; and a covering member configured to surround at least a part of an outer surface of the current breaking portion. A battery module including the bus bar is also provided.
