CHARGING SYSTEM

Abstract:

A charging system includes an AC power source, a plurality of rectifier circuits, a plurality of positive electrode side current cutoff circuits, and a control device. The plurality of rectifier circuits are connected between the AC power source and each of a plurality of battery modules. Each rectifier circuit supplies DC power obtained by rectifying AC power supplied from the AC power source to each battery module. The plurality of positive electrode side current cutoff circuits are connected between each of the plurality of battery modules and each of the plurality of rectifier circuits. Each positive electrode side current cutoff circuit automatically switches between conduction and cutoff of a current between each battery module and each rectifier circuit according to AC power input to each rectifier circuit.
