Abstract
A power supply apparatus acquires peripheral information regarding whether a living body is present outside a vehicle near a power supplying unit, during power supply to the vehicle. The power supply apparatus acquires in-vehicle information regarding whether a living body is present inside the vehicle, during power supply to the vehicle. The power supply apparatus restricts supplied electric power when in-vehicle information indicating that a living body is present inside the vehicle is acquired or when peripheral information indicating that a living body is present near the power supplying unit is acquired. The power supply apparatus changes a restriction amount of the supplied electric power when at least either of in-vehicle information indicating that a living body is present inside the vehicle or peripheral information indicating that a living body is present near the power supplying unit is acquired, compared to that when neither piece of information is acquired.
