Abstract

An insulation resistance drop detectorand a method of detecting a state of malfunction of the detectorare provided. When open of a coupling capacitor Co or malfunction of a lowpass filteris occurred, a time constant of the low pass filteris decreased and a rising time of an output of the lowpass filteragainst an output of a pulse signal Pbecomes shorter than that in a state of normal. Thereby, malfunction of the detectorcan be detected based on the output of the filtercorresponding to change of frequency of the pulse signal P
