A high-voltage apparatus includes a battery unit, a case that includes a circumferential wall section in which a cable insertion port that opens sideways is formed and that is configured to accommodate the battery unit, and a water detection sensor that is disposed at a portion located adjacent to the circumferential wall section below the cable insertion port inside the case and that is configured to detect water that has entered the case.

High-voltage apparatus and vehicle

A power supply device mounting structure for a power supply device disposed below a seat disposed in a vehicle interior is provided. The power supply device mounting structure includes a plate member and a contact portion. The plate member is disposed between the power supply device and a seat surface portion of the seat and the plate member covers an upper surface of the power supply device. The contact portion is provided at a position facing an edge portion of the plate member and the contact portion comes into contact with the seat surface portion when a load is input from the seat surface portion.

Power supply device mounting structure

A vehicle includes a high voltage battery that stores electric power; a battery box that stores the high voltage battery; a battery disposition section in which the battery box is provided; a power drive unit that controls acceleration and deceleration of an electric vehicle so that a request of a driver is implemented; and a water sensor that detects water in the battery disposition section. In response to detection of water by the water sensor, the power drive unit performs acceleration and deceleration limit control to limit acceleration and deceleration of the electric vehicle so that the acceleration or deceleration rate of the electric vehicle is maintained lower than or equal to a predetermined limited acceleration or deceleration rate.
