A control system has an input instrument that generates a signal indicating permission and prohibition of running of a load, a power-supply unit that is configured to supply driving power to the load when the load is permitted to run by an input signal from the input instrument, and to cut off the supply of the driving power to the load when the load is prohibited from running by the input signal, and a monitoring device that is configured to monitor the input instrument and the power-supply unit. The power-supply unit is configured to cut off the supply of the driving power to the load when monitoring result of the monitoring device indicates an abnormality of one of the input instrument and the power-supply unit. The control system is compatible with category 2 of ISO 13849-1.
