During charging of a cell module in which a plurality of cells are connected in series, a voltage is applied in forward polarity to a switch element even when a current interrupting switch provided to the cell module is open, thereby shorting an anti-fuse element, and the switch element is thereby opened. A voltage monitoring circuit and a vehicle equipped with the voltage monitoring circuit are thereby provided in which a high voltage is not applied even when the cell module is charging when the current interrupting switch is open.
