Abstract
A control device of a synchronous electric motor includes: the synchronous electric motor with three-phase stator windings Y-connected; a detection unit that detects a neutral point potential which is a potential at a Y connection point; and an inverter that drives the synchronous electric motor. The control device of the synchronous electric motor which controls the synchronous electric motor using the inverter, includes a measurement mode in which the neutral point potential is detected in a state in which the synchronous electric motor is energized by an AC current and controls the synchronous electric motor based on a value of the neutral point potential detected in the measurement mode.
