Power supply device, electrically-driven vehicle incorporating power supply device, and method of controlling power supply device
First Claim
1. A power supply device incorporated in an electrically-driven vehicle, comprising:
- a power storage device;
an electric power conversion device configured to allow at least one of power feeding from said power storage device to a load external to the vehicle and charging from said load to said power storage device to be performed; and
detection means for detecting a decrease in insulation resistance of the power supply device,said detection means, when said load is connected to said electric power conversion device, setting a determination threshold value for detecting the decrease in said insulation resistance to a value lower than the determination threshold value in a non-connected state of said load to said electric power conversion device.

Abstract
An ECU determines based on a voltage from an insulation resistance decrease detector whether the insulation resistance of a power supply device decreases or not. When a load external to the vehicle is not connected to the power supply device, the ECU sets a determination threshold value for determining that the insulation resistance decreases to a normal first value. On the other hand, when the load external to the vehicle is electrically connected to the power supply device, the ECU sets the determination threshold value to a second value which is lower than the first value, in consideration of an increase in the capacitive component due to a capacitor of a Y-capacitor.

9. A method of controlling a power supply device incorporated in an electrically-driven vehicle,
said power supply device including a power storage device, an electric power conversion device configured to allow at least one of power feeding from said power storage device to a load external to the vehicle and charging from said load to said power storage device to be performed, and a detection device detecting a decrease in insulation resistance of the power supply device, said control method comprising: -
a first step of determining whether or not said load is connected to said electric power conversion device; and a second step of, when it is determined that said load is connected to said electric power conversion device, setting a determination threshold value for detecting the decrease in said insulation resistance to a value lower than the determination threshold value in a non-connected state of said load to said electric power conversion device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
