Zusammenfassung:	A power conversion device includes power conversion circuitry including a plurality of submodules connected in series to each other. The power conversion device further includes: a signal reception unit configured to receive a signal representing a voltage of a capacitor in each of the submodules; a time calculation unit configured to calculate at least one of a charging time of the capacitor and a discharging time of the capacitor based on the signal; and a determination unit configured to determine whether the capacitor has degraded or not based on at least one of a first result of comparison of the charging time with a reference charging time serving as a reference for determining degradation of the capacitor, and a second result of comparison of the discharging time with a reference discharging time serving as a reference for determining degradation of the capacitor.
