Abstract
An inverter device that includes an inverter circuit that converts power between DC power and multi-phase AC power; a drive circuit that transfers a drive signal to each of a plurality of switching elements that form the inverter circuit to cause a switching element of the plurality of switching elements to perform turn-on, in which the switching element is caused to transition from an off state to an on state, and turn-off, in which the switching element is caused to transition from the on state to the off state; and a current detection circuit that detects a current that flows through each of the plurality of switching elements.
