Abstract
A power reception apparatus includes a secondary coil which receives power in a non-contact state from a power transmission apparatus having a primary coil, while being disposed opposite to the power transmission apparatus, a housing which accommodates the secondary coil to form a space between the secondary coil and the housing, an insulating fluid filled in the space, a measurement unit which measures efficiency of a non-contact power transmission between the primary coil and the secondary coil, and a detection unit which detects damage made to the housing based on a change in the efficiency during the non-contact power transmission.
