Abstract
A charging device basically includes a first power source, first and second device-side connection terminals, a first resistance, a detection unit and a device-side controller. The first resistance is connected between the first power source and the first device-side connection terminal. The detection unit detects an inter-terminal voltage between the first device-side connection terminal and the second device-side connection terminal. A vehicle-side controller is connected between a first vehicle-side connection terminal connected to the first device-side connection terminal and a second vehicle-side connection terminal connected to the second device-side connection terminal. The device-side controller determines that the charging-device-side charging connector and the vehicle-side charging connector are turned into a non-connected state from a connected state by a fact that the inter-terminal voltage detected by the detection unit becomes greater than a predetermined voltage.
