Abstract:
A converter includes a converter circuit including a rectifying section to rectify an alternating current (AC) voltage and a smoothing section to smooth a direct current (DC) voltage rectified by the rectifying section, a diagnostic device configured to diagnose an abnormality of the converter circuit, an inrush current preventing section configured to prevent inrush current from being supplied to the smoothing section, and a switching section configured to supply the AC voltage to the converter circuit through a path different from a voltage supply path of the inrush current preventing section, wherein the diagnostic device determines an abnormal region of the converter circuit by controlling the inrush current preventing section and the switching section.

Claim (Index 11):
An inverter comprising:\n an inverter circuit comprising an upper switch element and a lower switch element connected in series to the upper switch element, the inverter circuit connected to an alternating current (AC) motor; a current detecting section configured to detect current flowing through the inverter circuit; and a diagnostic device configured to:\n determine an abnormality of the inverter circuit by controlling turn-on and turn-off of the upper switch element and the lower switch element, \n turn on or turn off the upper switch element and the lower switch element, \n diagnose a short-circuit fault of the AC motor or a short-circuit fault of connection of the inverter circuit to the AC motor based on the current obtained from the current detecting section, and \n diagnose an open-circuit fault of each of the upper and lower switch elements based on a measurement result pattern of the current detected by the current detecting section.
