Abstract
A current sensor includes a current detection unit, a relay, a relay control unit, and a resistance value correction circuit. The current detection unit detects a detection target current based on a terminal voltage of a shunt resistor located in series with a path through which the detection target current flows and a detection resistance value for current detection corresponding to a resistance value of the shunt resistor. The relay is located in series with the path through which the detection target current flows. The relay control unit controls the relay to be turned on or off. The resistance value correction circuit calculates the resistance value of the shunt resistor as a calculated resistance value and corrects the detection resistance value based on the calculated resistance value.
