Abstract:
A relay device provided in vehicle having a battery, converting control signal formats, and relaying same between: a first communications unit that sends and receives control signals in a first format relating to charging; and second communications unit that supplies DC voltage, is provided in a charging station that charges battery, and sends and receives control signals in a second format relating to charging. The relay device includes: a limiting unit that limits power supplied between charging station and battery, regardless of vehicle side control performed on control signals' basis; an acquisition unit that obtains DC voltage supplied by charging station and obtains the battery's voltage; a determination unit that determines whether the voltage difference between each obtained voltage is less than threshold value; and a release unit that releases the limits by limiting unit if a determination has been made that the voltage difference is less than threshold value.

Claim (Index 10):
The relay device according to  claim 7 , wherein\n the vehicle is provided with a first DC cutoff relay that cuts off DC power supplied from the charging station to the battery, the relay device further comprises a second DC cutoff relay that cuts off DC power supplied from the charging station to the battery regardless of control performed by the vehicle based on the control signal, and the restriction unit restricts the energization by changing a state of the second DC cutoff relay to a cutoff state, and the release unit releases the restriction by changing a state of the DC cutoff relay to an energized state.
