A static electricity countermeasure component has an element body, a pair of discharge electrodes, and a pair of terminal electrodes. A closed cavity is formed inside the element body. The pair of discharge electrodes are arranged inside the element body, and are exposed to the cavity. The pair of terminal electrodes are connected to the pair of discharge electrodes, respectively, and are exposed from the element body. At least on one surface of the discharge electrodes in the cavity, an oxide of at least one kind of a metal selected from among a group composed of at least zinc, niobium, aluminum, magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium, is adhered. |
