Abstract
A supercharging system includes: a first supercharger including a first compressor for compressing air to be supplied to an engine and a motor for driving the first compressor; a leakage current measuring part for measuring a leakage current of the motor; and a first controller for controlling the first supercharger. The first controller includes a motor control part configured to, when a measurement result by the leakage current measuring part is not less than a first threshold, set an upper limit value of an output command value for the motor to be lower than when the measurement result is less than the first threshold, and to control an output of the motor within a range which does not exceed the upper limit value.
