A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes: a refrigerant circuit, a use side heat exchanger, a pressure reducing device, and a heat source side heat exchanger; A fan is provided together with at least one, selected from between, the use side heat exchanger and the heat source side heat exchanger and that has a fan motor; a relay unit connected to a direct-current supply device via the direct-current circuit breaker; a resistor unit connected in parallel to the relay unit; a DC/AC converter configured to convert a direct-current voltage supplied from the direct-current supply device via either the relay unit or the resistor unit into an alternating-current voltage and to supply the alternating-current voltage to at least one, selected from between, the compressor motor and the fan motor; and an opening and closing control unit configured to bring the relay unit into an open state when the direct-current circuit breaker becomes open.
