The power circuit device for vehicles is provided with a grounding portion for
grounding portions closer to a power consumption device side than a relay of main
conductive routes when the relays used for the main conductive routes extending
from an accumulator of a vehicle to a fuel heating device, a catalyst heating device,
an electric pump, or the like is turned OFF, so that a false power application
is not executed even a short-circuit occurs in a part of a power circuit. Also,
when two relays are arranged in series, the grounding portion is provided for the
relay closer to the power consumption device in order to monitor a voltage level
of the main conductive route and make it easy to detect a short-circuit or a disconnection occurrence.
