Moreover, one or a plurality of power supply target vehicles are selected from among one or a plurality of vehicles 5 that are determined to be able to supply power so that the total power supplied by the plurality of power supply devices 300 does not exceed the rated power capacity. Since power is supplied to the power supply target vehicle, power can be supplied to one or a plurality of vehicles 5 within the range of the rated power capacity.
Further, when the internal circuit 311 of all the power supply devices 300 is shut off based on the power supply command from the main control panel 100, the main control panel 100 operates the transfer device 430, so that the rated power capacity is not exceeded. The vehicle 5 can be transferred and power can be supplied to the vehicle 5.
Further, since the internal circuit 311 of the power supply device 300 is energized after the operation of the transfer device 430 is stopped, the vehicle can be transferred and power can be supplied to the vehicle within a range not exceeding the rated power capacity.
In addition, a start current that is a current when power supply to the vehicle 5 is started after the internal circuit 311 is energized is acquired, and when the current detected by the electrical measurement circuit falls below a predetermined ratio with respect to the start current, the internal circuit is Since the power is cut off, power feeding can be stopped in accordance with the charging state of the vehicle 5.
Also, after the internal circuit 311 is energized, the internal circuit is cut off when the current flowing through the internal circuit 311 drops to a predetermined rate within a predetermined time, so power supply is stopped according to the charging status of the vehicle 5 it can.
In addition, since the main control panel 100 sets a communication time interval for each power supply device 300 and the control unit 313 transmits status information every communication time interval, the main control panel 100 supplies power according to the situation. The device status can be grasped.
In addition, the power integrated value recorded based on the power integrated value reset command is set to zero, the power flowing through the internal circuit 311 is integrated and recorded, and the power integrated value is transmitted based on the power integrated value request command. The main control panel 100 can acquire an integrated power value for an arbitrary time for each power supply device 300.
Moreover, since the leakage detection information can be acquired from the leakage breaker 317 and the leakage detection information acquired for each power supply device 300 is transmitted to the main control panel, the leakage of each power supply device can be managed.
In addition, when power is not supplied from the main power supply panel 100, the backup power supply 319 supplies the control power to the control unit, so that the control unit 313 can control the power supply device 300 and retain control data even when power supply is lost. .

  The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
