An electric power tool includes a three-phase bridge motor circuit including upper and lower switching units of U, V and W phases arranged in upper and lower rows; a brushless motor rotationally operated by an electric power supplied through the motor circuit; and temperature detecting units for detecting temperatures of the switching units to output detection results such that the operation of the brushless motor is restrained or stopped depending on the detection results outputted from the temperature detecting units. The motor circuit is formed by mounting the switching units at six points on a mounting surface of a circuit board, and the temperature detecting units are arranged on a surface of the circuit board opposite to the mounting surface. |
