The support member (210) includes a length direction (L) corresponding to a circumferential direction of the device in an attached state to the measurement subject and a width direction (W) orthogonal to the length direction (L) and a thickness direction. The electrodes (41 to 46) are arranged side by side in the width direction (W). Low rigidity portions are provided between adjacent electrodes, the low rigidity portions having a lower rigidity than a rigidity of portions that overlap the electrodes in the thickness direction.
