[Problem] An object of the present invention is to provide a motor control unit that surely and high-reliably performs a protection of a motor release switch that compactly comprises semiconductor switching devices, depending on an abnormal mode and relevant to a temperature, without adding device components, and an electric power steering apparatus equipped with the motor control unit. [Means for solving the problem] The present invention is the motor control unit that is connected to a motor release switch which comprises FETs and is disposed between an inverter and a motor, comprising: a control section to detect an assist state of the inverter, to turn-ON or turn-OFF a control of the inverter based on a detection result and to detect whether abnormality is existed or not, a motor rotational speed detecting section to detect a motor rotational speed, an energy calculating section to calculate an energy based on the motor rotational speed, a judging section to turn-OFF all of the FETs of the motor release switch when the energy is within an area of safety operation, and a state detecting section to detect whether abnormality is existed or not based on information from an abnormality detecting section that detects abnormality of the sensors and the inverter, wherein the control section turns-ON the control of the inverter when the state detecting section does not detect abnormality and turns-OFF the control of the inverter when the state detecting section detects abnormality.
