Abstract
A charging stand is power supply equipment being storable under a ground, and includes: an electrical component for supplying electric power to a vehicle on the ground (e.g., a control device, a power supply circuit, an actuator, a connector, a touch panel display, a communication device, a notification device, and a cable reel device); and a buoyancy generation portion causing a specific component that is at least a part of the electrical component and for which submersion is avoided (e.g., the control device, the power supply circuit, the actuator, the connector, the touch panel display, the communication device, the notification device, and the cable reel device) to float above the ground by buoyancy when water is accumulated in a recess. With the above, when water is accumulated in the recess, the specific component for which submersion is avoided among the electrical component can be floated above the ground by buoyancy.
