To provide a bus bar temperature sensor and a bus bar module which are highly responsive and can precisely measure the temperature of a bus bar.SOLUTION: A temperature sensor 1 used by being attached to a bus bar 2 includes a heat sensing element and a case part 4 containing the heat sensing element. The bus bar includes a first extension unit 2a, a second extension unit 2b extending in parallel to the first extension unit, a connection unit 2c for connecting the respective top end parts of the first extension unit and the second extension unit to each other, and an attachment space S between the first extension unit and the second extension unit facing each other. The case part has a fitting unit 5 which can be fit in the attachment space in a pressed state, and the fitting unit has a plurality of protruding parts 5a formed in a surface in contact with one of the first extention unit and the second extension unit facing the attachment space.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】 応答性に優れていると共にバスバーの温度を高精度に測定できるバスバー用温度センサ及びバスバーモジュールを提供すること。【解決手段】 バスバー２に取り付けて使用される温度センサ１であって、感熱素子と、内部に感熱素子が収納されているケース部４とを備え、バスバーが、第１延在部２ａと、第１延在部に平行に延在する第２延在部２ｂと、第１延在部と第２延在部の先端部とを連結する連結部２ｃとを備えていると共に互いに対向している第１延在部と第２延在部との間に取付空間Ｓを有し、ケース部が、取付空間に圧入状態で嵌め込み可能な嵌め込み部５を有し、嵌め込み部が、取付空間に面した第１延在部及び第２延在部の一方に接触する表面に、複数の凸部５ａが形成されている。【選択図】図１
