Abstract
A power control apparatus includes the following elements. A measure measures a value of a current to be supplied from a power supply source to a load set. A switch is disposed on a power supply path from power supply source to a load set. A setter sets a first maximum current value in the case of a normal state in which the load set receives power from a main power supply source and sets a second maximum current value when the load set receives power from the sub power supply source. Control circuitry turns OFF the switch when the value of the measured current exceeds the first maximum current value in the case of the normal state and turns OFF the switch when the load set receives power from the sub power supply source and the value of the measured current exceeds the second maximum current value.
