Abstract
This current measurement device includes a conductor, a first terminal block, a pair of detection coils and a current calculator. A magnetic field, proportional to the magnitude of a conducted to-be-measured current, is generated around the conductor. The first terminal block has a placement surface on which the conductor is disposed. The pair of detection coils has the configuration, connected in series and in opposite polarities, and disposed on the placement surface of the first terminal block such that the conductor is between the pair of detection coils, and each coil is spaced from the conductor by an insulating distance. The detection coils output an inductive voltage signal produced by the magnetic field generated by the conductor and an external magnetic field which is magnetic noise. A current calculator calculates the value of the to-be-measured current on the basis of the inductive voltage signals from the pair of detection coils.
