To provide a protection element with a resistor capable of exactly protecting protective devices used by DC against malfunctions except excessive current and overcharge by excluding migration of low melting alloys.

An excessive current heat-generating piece 2 which generates heat by conduction of excessive current is electrically brought into contact with a pair of electrodes 1, 1, both of each electrode 1 and the excessive current heat-generating piece 2 are joined by a low-melting soluble material 3, and the resistor 8 capable of heat-generating by current conduction at the time of malfunctions of the protective devices and melting the low-melting soluble material by such the generated heat is added on an excessive current intercepting mechanism wherein a spring 7 having stress energy capable of separating the excessive current heat-generating piece 2 from the electrodes 1, 1 is arranged.
