An actuator control system 1 includes a controlling controller 2 and one or more driving controllers 3 connected to the controlling controller 2 via a power line 9, wherein the controlling controller 2 generates a serial signal that composites a power-supply voltage to be supplied to an actuator 30 and a command signal generated in order to control driving of the actuator 30 and transmits the generated serial signal to the driving controllers 3 via the power line 9, and the driving controllers 3 separate and retrieve the power-supply voltage and the control signal. Due to the configuration described above, the driving controllers 3 supply a drive voltage and a drive control signal to actuators 30 connected thereto. Accordingly, an actuator control system can be provided whose amount of installed wiring has been significantly reduced.
