A power supply system is provided with devices of generating an electric power, controlling an amount of power generation, charging an electric power having been generated, converting an electric power having been generated, charging an electric power having been converted, operating an electric load by an electric power having been converted, and detecting a short-circuit fault of input/output of a DC converter. In the case of detecting an input/output short-circuit fault of the DC converter, from the input/output short-circuit detector to the generator controller, an instruction is given such that the generator is switched to make a power generation at a predetermined constant voltage determined based on a voltage of the circuit arrangement.
