Abstract
An electric power converter converts electric power supplied from a power supply to an electrical load. The electric power converter includes a coil, an electrically conductive portion and a current sensor. The coil extends in an axial direction of the coil. The coil allows a current to flow through the coil. The electrically conductive portion is located at a position apart from the coil. The electrically conductive portion allows the current to flow through the electrically conductive portion. The current sensor detects the current flowing through the electrically conductive portion. The current sensor includes a first sensor element and a second sensor element, each of which detects a magnetic flux being a detected magnetic flux generated by the current flowing through the electrically conductive portion. The first sensor element and the second sensor element are disposed in a radial direction of the coil.
