A sensor, comprising:
- a first bus bar;
- a second bus bar;
- and
- a shunt resistor including a shunt resistor body part whose one end portion is bonded to the first bus bar and the other end portion is bonded to the second bus bar and a detection terminal extending from the shunt resistor body part,
