This electric braking device transmits power generated by an electric motor MTR to a pressing member PSN and causes pressing force to be generated by the pressing member PSN with respect to a friction member MSB. The electric braking device is provided with a lock mechanism LOK. A locked state (a state in which movement of a locked section RCH in a direction in which pressing force decreases is impossible) is achieved in the lock mechanism LOK by: performing "supplied power amount reduction control" in which the amount of power supplied to the electric motor MTR is reduced while a locking member TSU is maintained in a lockable position; causing the locked section RCH to move in the direction in which pressing force decreases; and causing the locking member TSU and the locked section RCH to engage. When performing supplied power amount reduction control, the amount of power supplied is first reduced by a large reduction gradient and then reduced by a small reduction gradient. |
