Abstract

A control apparatus for an AC electric motor vehicle including a converter that converts an AC voltage input from an AC overhead wire via a transformer into a DC voltage, an inverter that converts the DC voltage into an AC voltage, and a motor that is driven and controlled by the inverter includes: torque-command calculating units that calculate a torque command value of the motor and output the torque command value to the inverter; and a static inverter that supplies electric power to a load mounted on the AC electric motor vehicle.
