<p>Disclosed is a DC current sensor including: a magnetic core symmetrically divided into two parts and having a center space through which a conductive wire carrying DC current to be measured passes; a detection coil wound around one of the magnetic core parts for measuring electromotive force; an operating member installed at the other one of the magnetic core parts repeatedly approach and retreat the magnetic core parts from each other in a non-contact manner; and a controller for controlling the operating member to repeatedly approach and retreat the magnetic core parts from each other to generate electromotive force on a magnetic circuit, wherein there are a pair of gaps between the pair of magnetic core parts, and the generated electromotive force is measured by the detection coil and output from an amplifier circuit to detect the DC current flowing through the conductive wire. Therefore, it is possible to increase detection precision of the DC current sensor by finely controlling the size of the gap.</p> |
