A load testing apparatus includes: a resistance unit including a plurality of resistors adapted to receive power supply from a test target power source and a wall adapted to hold both ends of each of the plurality of resistors; and a cover attached to a frame holding the resistance unit and adapted to protect the wall and a portion included in a terminal of the resistor and projecting and exposed from the wall. Each of the resistors includes a cap. The cap has an insulation property and is attached to the portion included in the terminal and projecting from the wall. The cover is made of a conductive material. The cap is arranged between the cover and the portion included in the terminal and projecting from the wall.
