Abstract
A motor control device of the present invention supplies a detection current to a motor at predetermined time intervals, detects a voltage between the both ends of a smoothing capacitor when the detection current is supplied, and determines whether a connector is inserted or unplugged based on a change in the voltage between the both ends of the smoothing capacitor. Furthermore, if determining that the connector is unplugged, the motor control device decreases the voltage between the both ends of the smoothing capacitor to or below a defined value by discharging the smoothing capacitor.
