Abstract

A current detector includes: a current sensor that is constructed using a Rogowski coil, detects a current flowing in a measured object, and outputs a detection signal corresponding to a current value of the current; a transfer line that is constructed of a distributed constant line and transfers the detection signal; an impedance converting circuit that is provided between the current sensor and the transfer line and has an input impedance equal or substantially equal to a characteristic impedance of the current sensor; an integrator circuit that integrates the detection signal inputted via the transfer line and outputs an output signal indicating a current value of the current; and a resistance circuit that has a resistance value that is equal or substantially equal to a characteristic impedance of the transfer line and is connected in series between the transfer line and the integrator circuit.
