Abstract
The corrosion detection sensor detects corrosion to an electrical apparatus caused by a corrosive gas. The corrosion detection sensor includes a metal thin film to be corroded by the corrosive gas, a resistive element connected in series to the metal thin film, a resistance measuring instrument that measures a combined resistance of the metal thin film and the resistive element, and a notification unit that outputs a detection result indicating that the combined resistance measured by the resistance measuring unit is greater than a predetermined reference resistance. The reference resistance is determined according to a danger level indicating that the electrical apparatus is corrosively damaged by the corrosive gas.
