Abstract
A power conversion system includes a first capacitor, an isolated type converter circuit, and a control circuit. The first capacitor is connected to the direct-current power supply via an inrush current prevention circuit. The inrush current prevention circuit is switchable at least between a high-impedance state and a low-impedance state. The converter circuit includes a transformer, and the first capacitor is connected to a primary winding wire of the transformer. The control circuit controls the inrush current prevention circuit and the converter circuit to cause the converter circuit to start operating, and then, the control circuit switches the inrush current prevention circuit from the high-impedance state to the low-impedance state.
