Abstract
A power conversion device includes a rectification unit that rectifies first alternating current (AC) power supplied from a commercial power supply, a capacitor connected to an output end of the rectification unit, an inverter that converts power output from the rectification unit and from the capacitor into second AC power, and outputs the second AC power to a load including a motor, which inverter is connected to both ends of the capacitor, and a control unit that controls operation of the inverter to output the second AC power from the inverter to the load to reduce current flowing to the capacitor, which second AC power includes a pulsation that depends on a pulsation of power flowing from the rectification unit to the capacitor. No discharge circuit and no overvoltage protection circuit are provided for the capacitor.
