Abstract
An insulation resistance drop detector 50 and a method of detecting a state of malfunction of the detector 50 are provided. When open of a coupling capacitor Co or malfunction of a lowpass filter 53 is occurred, a time constant of the low pass filter 53 is decreased and a rising time of an output of the lowpass filter 53 against an output of a pulse signal P1 becomes shorter than that in a state of normal. Thereby, malfunction of the detector 50 can be detected based on the output of the filter 53 corresponding to change of frequency of the pulse signal P1.
