In the electrophotographic copying apparatus or printer, a current proportional to the output current of the high voltage output circuit for supplying the charger etc. with a high voltage is detected by a current detection circuit, and the detection output is supplied to a smoothing circuit and a peak hold circuit. The outputs of the smoothing circuit and the peak hold circuit are supplied to a comparator and are compared with a reference value. If the output of the smoothing circuit or the peak hold circuit exceeds the reference value, the output of the high voltage output circuit is lowered or terminated.
