Abstract
A switch operating unit 10 has operating switches for operating loads. A load control unit controls the corresponding loads in accordance with the operation of the operating switches according to information, which is stored in first storage device, as to the correlation between the operating switches and the loads. A total rated capacity computation device computes the total rated capacity of the loads to be driven under the control of the load control unit according to information, which is stored in second storage device, as to the rated capacity of each load. When the total rated capacity exceeds a predetermined allowable capacity, the load control unit operates to restrict the driving of the low-priority loads in the order of analog-controlled loads and on-off controlled loads according to the information stored in the second storage device.
