Abstract
A power converter includes: a power module that converts direct-current electric power from a power storage apparatus and alternating-current electrical power to be supplied to a load; a charger that converts alternating-current electrical power supplied via an external connector to direct-current electric power and charges the power storage apparatus therewith; a capacitor module that is arranged between the power module and the charger and that has a capacitor that smoothes voltage; a DC/DC converter that converts direct-current voltage supplied from the power storage apparatus; and a signal line connected to the charger, wherein the power module and the capacitor module are connected by high-voltage wire on one surface side of the capacitor module, and the signal line is connected to the charger by extending via other surface of the capacitor module opposite from the one surface.
