Abstract
A motor driving device includes: a converter unit having a capacitor; a plurality of inverter units having a plurality of semiconductor switching elements and configured to convert a capacitor voltage across the capacitor into an AC voltage to drive a plurality of motors; a second switch configured to connect the negative-side terminal of the capacitor to ground; a first detector configured to detect a ground-referenced voltage; and a second detector configured to detect the capacitor voltage. The motor driving device controls the semiconductor switching elements to establish a measurement state for enabling measuring of the insulation resistance of a measurement target motor, estimates a convergence value of the ground-referenced voltage based on multiple measurements of the ground-referenced voltage detected by the first detector, and then calculates the insulation resistance based on the estimated convergence value and the capacitor voltage.
