Abstract
The discharge detector of the present invention includes a filter circuit configured to pass a noise superimposed on the current or voltage in a predetermined frequency range; an amplifier configured to amplify a level of the noise passed through the filter circuit; and a processor configured to detect occurrence of discharge based on the noise level amplified by the amplifier. The processor is set to have a threshold related to the noise level and a determination time to determine whether discharge has occurred. The processor is capable of selectively executing either one of a discharge detection mode or a learning mode. The processor in the learning mode executes the process of sampling the noise at the level of the threshold or more and resetting the value of the setting of the determination time based on a result of the sampling.
