Abstract: A connector includes a housing with a latching lock and a lever latch section which is independent from the latching lock. A partner connector includes a partner housing with a lock section which is latchable by the latching lock. The lever is changeable between a non-latched state and a latched state, wherein when changing the lever from the non-latched state to the latched state, the lever connects the connector to the partner connector so as to cause the connector and the partner connector to approach each other in a forward-rearward direction. The connector is configured to be fixed to the partner connector by the lever being brought into the latched state and by the lock section being brought into a state in which the lock section is latched by the latching lock.

Abstract: A three-phase/two-phase conversion unit 43 generates a composite vector i?? of three-phase AC currents based on AC currents iu, iv, and iw. An electrical angle calculation unit 44 outputs the electrical angle of the composite vector i?? with reference to the U-phase AC current iu. A quadrant calculation unit 45 obtains which quadrant of the first to sixth quadrants partitioned in advance the acquired electrical angle corresponds to, confirms whether the composite vector i?? passes through the set quadrant, and outputs quadrant information thereof. A failure detection unit 47 determines whether the composite vector i?? has rotated from the first quadrant to the sixth quadrant, and when there is a quadrant that has not been passed, considers that it is a failure state, specifies a failure part of the switching element from the relationship between the electrical angle and the failure part, and outputs failure information to a PWM signal generation unit 42.
