Abstract
In a high voltage inverter device switching an input voltage to apply an exciting current to an excitation winding of a transformer and output an alternating-current high voltage from an output winding to supply the high voltage to a load from output lines, a point on the output line is connected to a frame ground. Each of a first and a second winding of the electrical leakage detecting transformer is interposed in series with the output line on a side where current flows out of the point and a side where current flows into the point respectively. A detection voltage Vd outputted from an amplifying winding is compared by a comparison voltage Vref, and an electrical leakage detection signal Sd is outputted when Vd>Vref. The first and second winding are opposite in winding direction to each other and equal in number of turns.
