Abstract
Provided are a power line communication system, a connector device, and a power line communication device that allow downsizing of a device for power line communication in a vehicle that performs power line communication with a feeding device via a charging cable. An electromagnetic induction type signal converter and a filter necessary for power line communication are provided in a connector device, and a power line communication section which performs power line communication with the electromagnetic induction type signal converter is provided in an ECU. A capacitor, a signal wire, and a capacitorare connected in series between AC linesandextending from a tubular partof the connector device. The electromagnetic induction type signal converter is formed by a primary coil obtained by winding the signal wirearound a toroidal corefitted on the tubular part, and a secondary coil obtained by winding a signal wireconnected to the power line communication section around the toroidal core. Cutoutsandfor housing the signal wiresandwound around the toroidal coreare formed in the tubular partof the connector device
