Abstract
An inverter device includes a motor, a power supply that supplies the motor with electric current, an inverter that, during regenerative operation of the motor, performs switching between a first state in which regenerative current generated in the motor is returned to the motor again and a second state in which the regenerative current is supplied to the power supply, a first detector that detects a first condition electrically acting on the inverter, a second detector that detects a second condition electrically acting on the power supply, and a determiner that performs a first determination to perform switching between the first state and the second state, based on a detection result by the first detector or the second detector.
