Abstract
An alternator control device includes a battery state determination unit determining whether the state of a battery is a predetermined normal state, a vehicle speed determination unit determining whether the speed of a vehicle is within a predetermined low speed range, a position determination unit determining whether the position of the vehicle meets a predetermined positional condition, and an output voltage instruction unit gives an instruction relating to the output voltage of the alternator. The output voltage instruction unit gives an instruction to increase the output voltage of the alternator to a voltage that is greater than a reference voltage, if it is determined that the state of the battery is not the predetermined normal state, if it is determined that the speed of the vehicle is within the predetermined low speed range, and if it is determined that the position of the vehicle meets the positional condition.
