Abstract
A current sensor includes a bus bar through which a measured current is carried, a pair of shielding plates that include a magnetic material, and are arranged to sandwich the bus bar in a thickness direction of the bus bar, and a magnetic detection element that is arranged between the bus bar and one of the shielding plates, and detects an intensity of magnetic field caused by the current carried through the bus bar. The shielding plate has a length of not less than 20 mm in a length direction of the bus bar, and a width of not less than 24 mm and not more than 38 mm in a width direction orthogonal to the length direction.
