Abstract

An interconnection inverter device includes a pair of capacitors connected in series to a pair of direct-current buses each connecting a direct-current power supply and the inverter; an opening/closing unit connected to either one of the pair of direct-current buses; voltage monitor units that monitor terminal voltages of the pair of capacitors respectively; and a controller that controls opening or closing of the opening/closing unit based on monitor voltages detected by the voltage monitor units.
