Abstract

See full text

A contact welding detection system includes a main circuit including a DC power source, a power-supply unit electrically connected to the DC power source, and a main circuit relay electrically connected between the DC power source and the power-supply unit, a measurement unit measuring an electrical characteristic value on a signal wiring between a signal generation unit and the main circuit. The system further includes a welding determination unit configured to determine the presence or absence of contact welding in the relay on the basis of the electrical characteristic value, and a first forced ground-contacting unit electrically connected between the main circuit and a conductive member connected to ground. The first forced ground-contacting unit is electrically connected to the main circuit at a connection point located on an opposite side of the relay to a connection point at which the signal generation unit is electrically connected to the main circuit.
