1. A system, comprising:
a power converter controlled by switching, and
a microsurge suppressor on the side of a load inserted on a power supply line from the power converter to the load, wherein
the microsurge suppressor on the side of the load includes a multi-layer printed wiring board on the side of the load provided with a first terminal on the side of the power converter and a second terminal on the side of the load, and a capacitative element for bypassing a surge on the side of the load;
a first power wiring and a second power wiring respectively capacitively coupled are formed on a first wiring layer and a second wiring layer of the multi-layer printed wiring board on the side of the load;
the first terminal and the second terminal are connected via the first power wiring;
the second terminal and a terminal of the load are directly connected; and
the capacitative element for bypassing a surge on the side of the load is directly connected to the second terminal and the end on the side of the second terminal of the second power wiring.
