The utility model discloses an electric motor and a household appliance, the electric motor includes a stator, a rotor arranged in the stator, a shell enclosing the stator and two bearing brackets arranged on the end of the shell respectively, the rotor is installed on the bearing bracket through the bearing, wherein the electric motor also includes two bearing brackets passing through the stator and conducting The conductive part of. In the technical scheme of the utility model, the conductive parts pass through the stator and guide the stator and the bearing bracket, which can realize the electric connection of the two bearing brackets of the motor, thus effectively preventing the electric erosion damage of the motor bearings. In the above technical scheme, the connection reliability of the conductive parts can be improved by passing the conductive parts through the stator, and the service life of the bearing can be avoided due to the unstable electric connection.
