The utility model relates to a current detection device used for a
copper bar, the current detection device is installed on the
copper bar, one side or two sides of the
copper bar are provided with gaps, the current detection device comprises a current detection
chip and a shielding case, the shielding case covers the copper bar, and the current detection
chip is parallel to the copper bar and is installed on the surface of the copper bar or above the surface of the copper bar. Compared with the prior art, one side or two sides of the copper bar are provided with the gaps, so that an internal
magnetic field of the shielding cover translates in the horizontal direction when the
alternating current changes, and the influence of the
skin effect on the induction
magnetic field intensity of the current detection
chip is reduced; the current in the copper bar can be detected without an additional communication wire harness or a shell, so that the size is greatly reduced, and the cost is reduced; current detection can be carried out by arranging the current detection chip on the surface of the copper bar, the installation position can be flexibly adjusted according to the internal space requirement of the product, and the application range is wide.
