1. A power converter comprising a power module having a power controlling semiconductor element disposed on the conductive member with an insulation member interposed and a current detector for detecting current which is inputted into said power controlling semiconductor element or outputted from said power controlling semiconductor element;

  • and a control unit for controlling operation of said power controlling semiconductor element, wherein said current detector has a conductor which is electrically connected to said power controlling semiconductor element, is disposed on said conductive member with an insulation member interposed, and has a portion relative distance of which to said conductive member is larger than relative distance between the laminated portion laminated on said conductive member with said insulation member interposed and the conductive member; and

    a magnetic detecting unit which is disposed in said conductor portion or in the vicinity of said conductor portion relative distance of which to said conductive member is larger than relative distance between said conductor portion laminated on the conductive member with the insulation member interposed and said conductive member, and has a magnetic detecting semiconductor element which is electrically connected to said control unit.
