The invention discloses a micro-current apparent power sensing method and a device, and belongs to the technical field of electromagnetic measurement, and the method comprises the steps: S1, detectinga grounding wire, a grounding lead of an insulating part or a micro-current on a zero-sequence current line, and obtaining a current on a corresponding line; S2, carrying out current acquisition on the micro current detected in the step S1, and multiplying the micro current by a pre-judged given apparent
voltage to obtain apparent power; and S3, accumulating the apparent power obtained in the S2in real time to obtain the apparent electric quantity. According to the method, the grounding small current, the insulation current or the leakage current can be converted into an apparent electric quantity form accumulated along with time, so that the change trend of the
electric power destructive power can be considered in a time period, necessary
security check measures can be taken conveniently, disordered power failure is avoided, and an
electric power foundation is laid for guaranteeing normal production.
