A shunt resistor of the present invention has a configuration including a substantially planar resistor ( 10 ) having a predetermined resistance value; a first fixed terminal plate ( 20 ) that has one end portion ( 21 ) connected to an edge of the resistor ( 10 ); and a second fixed terminal plate ( 30 ) that has one end portion ( 31 ) connected to the other edge of the resistor ( 10 ), that has a portion in the vicinity of the end portion ( 31 ) which is bent substantially in the shape of the letter "U", and that opposes at least a portion of the first fixed terminal plate ( 20 ), wherein a plurality of terminal tabs ( 12 ) for taking a voltage drop in the resistor ( 10 ) as a voltage signal is provided protrusive from a side edge of the resistor ( 10 ), and lead wires ( 40 ) are connected to the terminal tabs ( 12 ). This configuration eliminates a conventional structural restriction requiring portions in the direction of to the sidewall of the resistor 10 to be open, and consequently, enables the degree of freedom in design to be enhanced.
