Abstract

Provided is a power conversion device, including a fault determination unit () for determining, based on phase voltages of a polyphase dynamo-electric machine () detected by phase voltage detection units (), a power, earth, or open fault of armature windings of the polyphase dynamo-electric machine (). The fault determination unit () determines, in a state that all power semiconductor switching elements () are in an off state and no induction voltage is generated in the armature windings of the polyphase dynamo-electric machine (), the power fault when all the phase voltages are substantially equal to an anode potential of a DC power supply (), the earth fault when all the phase voltages are substantially equal to a cathode potential of the DC power supply (), and the open fault when all the phase voltages are not substantially the same potential.
