A charge and discharge system for a vehicle includes an electric vehicle having a battery and an inverter, a charge and discharge device having a first relay and a second relay, and a commercial power source. An interlock mechanism is applied to the first relay and the second relay, and the interlock mechanism prevents one of the first relay or the second relay being closed when a remaining one of the first relay or the second relay is in a closed state. The first relay includes two first electric contacts that are normally open and are connected between a branch point and the commercial power source, and the second relay includes two second electric contacts that are normally closed and are connected to the branch point.
