PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a communication system that is capable of maintaining an electric apparatus accommodated in a frame by communicating maintenance information on the electric apparatus by using wireless communication differing from radio communication and is capable of keeping desired security in the electric apparatus.SOLUTION: A visible light communication device 20 performs visible light communication on electric apparatus information on a control board 10 to enable, for example, a worker terminal W1 of a worker W to receive the electric apparatus information. The visible light communication device 20 comprises: a maintenance lighting unit 3 for emitting visible light to the control board 10 or the worker W side of the control board 10; an information acceptance unit 5 for accepting various types of electric apparatus information such as the control board 10's operation situation and measurement value; and a transmission control unit 6 for inputting the electric apparatus information accepted by the information acceptance unit 5 to a light source 31 of the maintenance lighting unit 3.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】筐体に収容された電気機器のメンテナンス情報を電波通信とは異なる無線通信により通信して電気機器をメンテナンスすることができ、電気機器において所望のセキュリティを保持することが可能な通信システムを提供する。【解決手段】可視光通信装置２０により、制御盤１０の電気機器情報を可視光通信し当該電気機器情報を例えば作業者Ｗの作業者端末Ｗ１により受信できるようにする。可視光通信装置２０は、制御盤１０や当該制御盤１０の作業者Ｗ側に対して可視光を発光するメンテナンス用照明部３と、制御盤１０の稼働状況や計測値等の各種の電気機器情報を受け付ける情報受付部５と、その情報受付部５で受け付けた電気機器情報をメンテナンス用照明部３の光源３１に入力する送信制御部６と、を備える。【選択図】図１
