VEHICLE AND ELECTRIC POWER CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

An electric power control device for a vehicle which is configured to receive direct current which is supplied from a charging device outside the vehicle and includes an electric storage device configured to be charged by the direct current includes an electronic control unit configured to: acquire maximum output information of the charging device; while the electric storage device is charged by the direct current supplied from the charging device, execute a current limiting process in which the direct current becomes lower than a predetermined value when a parameter relevant to a temperature of a current-carrying component and a threshold of the parameter satisfy a predetermined condition, the current-carrying component being a component in which the direct current flows through; and set the threshold based on the maximum output information of the charging device.
