To prevent contacts of main relays from deteriorating or welding on the occurrence of faults in refrigerating cycles.
A power circuit 1 of an air conditioner includes a rectification circuit RC, a capacitor C (smoothing circuit), the main relay 10 provided on a current path between the rectification circuit RC and the capacitor C, an inverter circuit 30, a microcomputer 100, and a delay circuit 40. The microcomputer 100 includes an inverter circuit control unit 110, a main relay open/close control unit 120, and a fault signal receiving unit 130. When a fault detection unit 200 detects a fault in the air conditioner to output an fault signal to the fault signal receiving unit 130, the inverter circuit control unit 110 outputs a drive signal for stopping the inverter circuit 30. After a first predetermined delay time from the output, the main relay open/close control unit 120 outputs a control signal for opening the main relay 10.
