Abstract

A power supply monitoring device is applied to a power supply system. The system includes a first system having a first load and a second system having a second load. The first and second systems are connectable by an inter-system switch. The second system is connected with a power supply unit. In the first system, loads are connected in parallel as the first load, and fuses are provided to energization paths connected to the loads. The device includes a monitoring unit monitoring voltage reduction in the first system when the first and second loads are driven in a state in which the inter-system switch is closed, and a switch operation unit allowing the inter-system switch to conduct electricity in a state in which a conduction current in the inter-system switch is limited during a time period from voltage reduction, if the monitoring unit determines that the voltage reduction has occurred.
