Original Abstract Submitted

A power storage system includes: a stationary power storage device configured to supply electric power to an electrical load; a control device configured to receive supply of electric power from each of the power storage device and another power source; a relay located between the power storage device and the control device and between the power storage device and the electrical load, but not between the control device and the power source; and an input device configured to accept input from a user. When a connection request is input to the input device while the relay is in a disconnected state, the control device brings the relay into a connected state.
