Abstract
A vehicle includes a power interface configured to perform at least one of power transmission to and power reception from an external apparatus, a power accumulation device, a power line that constitutes at least a part of a current path between the power interface and the power accumulation device, and a control device configured to control charging and discharging of the power accumulation device using a plurality of profiles for protecting the power line. The profiles are determined such that the degrees of reduction of the magnitude of a current that flows through the power line and the energization time become larger as the ambient temperature of the power line becomes higher. The profiles include a first profile and a second profile that has a larger degree of reduction than that of the first profile.
