Abstract
Provided is a liquid sensor capable of relatively accurately detecting the liquid level even if vibration or the like occurs. The liquid sensor is configured to detect a liquid level in a state in which at least a portion of the liquid sensor is immersed in liquid. This liquid sensor includes a substrate. The substrate is provided with a hole. An inner circumferential surface of the substrate is formed around the hole. A first electrode and a second electrode facing the first electrode are formed on the inner circumferential surface. The liquid sensor further includes a detection circuit. The detection circuit is configured to detect capacitance between the first and second electrodes.
