Abstract
An electric quantity of a power supply of a connection switching device for switching the connection state of a motor, or at least one electric quantity which varies with the first-mentioned electric quantity is detected, the result of the detection is used to detect or predict a fall of a voltage of the switching power supply. Based on the result of the detection or prediction, an inverter is so controlled as to stop the motor before the voltage of the switching power supply falls below the minimum voltage required for the operation of the connection switching device. Breakdown of the connection switching device can be prevented.
