Vehicular circuit body
A vehicular circuit body includes a trunk line that extends in at least a front-and-rear direction of a vehicle, a plurality of control boxes that are provided on the trunk line, and a branch line that connects the control box to an accessory. The trunk line and the branch line each includes a power source line having a predetermined current capacity and a communication line having a predetermined communication capacity. The control box includes a branch line connection portion to which the branch line is connected, and a branch line control unit that distributes power from the trunk line to the branch line by controlling the branch line connection portion according to a control program. The control program can be externally changed based on the accessory connected to the branch line.
1. A vehicular circuit body provided in a vehicle, comprising:
a trunk line that extends in at least a front-and-rear direction of the vehicle;
a plurality of control boxes that are provided on the trunk line; and
a branch line that connects the control box to an accessory,
wherein the trunk line and the branch line each includes a power source line having a predetermined current capacity and a communication line having a predetermined communication capacity;
wherein the control box includes a branch line connection portion to which the branch line is connected, and a branch line control unit that distributes power from the trunk line to the branch line by controlling the branch line connection portion according to a control program; and
wherein the branch line control unit is configured to receive a change in the control program from a source that is external to the control box, where the change in the control program is based on the accessory connected to the branch line.
