Abstract
A current sensor has a first bus bar, a second bus bar, and a third bus bar, which are formed in a plate shape, and also has a first magnetic sensing unit, a second magnetic sensing unit, and a third magnetic sensing unit placed so as to respectively face the first bus bar, second bus bar, and third bus bar. Each bus bar has a narrow-width portion with the relevant magnetic sensing unit placed so as to face it, and also has two wide-width portions. The second magnetic sensing unit, which senses a magnetic field generated from the second bus bar, and the third magnetic sensing unit, which senses a magnetic field generated from the third bus bar, are offset from their relevant narrow-width portions toward opposite sides in the Y-axis direction, when viewed along the Z-axis direction.
