The micro-switch couples electrically a first terminal to a second terminal. The micro-switch includes: a first supporting member where the first terminal is provided; a moving unit where the second terminal corresponding to the first terminal is provided; a driving unit for bringing the second terminal into contact with the first terminal by driving the moving unit in a direction of the first terminal by supplying power; an electrode provided in the first supporting member, and for supplying power to the driving unit; an elastic terminal including the elastic unit having elasticity in a predetermined direction; and a pushing terminal contacting the elastic terminal by pushing the elastic unit, the pushing terminal being electrically coupled to the electrode.
