Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method for removing a DC offset in a power meter. The apparatus for removing a DC offset in a power meter according to exemplary embodiment includes: an ADC; a HPF removing the DC offset from the signal output from the ADC; a selector receiving the signals passing through the HPF and bypassing the HPF and outputting any one thereof; a determination block receiving a signal output from the ADC or from the selector and determining whether the received signal is a sinusoidal signal; an offset calculation block calculating the DC offset to be compensated from the signal input to the determination block or output from the selector; and an offset compensation unit disposed on a path bypassing the HPF, compensating the calculated DC offset value in the signal output from the ADC and outputting the compensated result to the selector.
