A voltage detection device detects an objective AC voltage arising on a detection object. The voltage detection device includes; a detecting electrode placed so as to be capacitively coupled with the detection object; a reference signal output section for outputting a reference signal; a detecting section outputting a detection signal changing its amplitude in accordance with both current values of a detection object current flowing according to the objective AC voltage and a reference current flowing according to the reference signal; and a signal extracting section for extracting a signal component of the objective AC voltage from an amplified detection signal and outputting the signal component as an output signal, the amplified detection signal being obtained through controlling a gain for amplifying the detection signal so as to make a signal component of the reference signal included in the detection signal have a predetermined value.
