Electrically Powered Vehicle

An electrically powered vehicle is connected to an external power supply through a charge plug. A relay is interposed in an electrical path extending to a power storage device from a power feed node electrically connected to the external power supply through the charge plug. A control device operates with electric power from an auxiliary machinery power supply provided separately from the power storage device and controls opening and closing of the relay in correspondence with a period during which the power storage device is charged. None of electric power consuming components mounted on the electrically powered vehicle is connected to the power feed node. Therefore, even during a period in which the electrically powered vehicle is connected to the external power supply, all electric power consuming components can electrically be disconnected from the external power supply by turning off the relay.
