Abstract
According to one embodiment, a television apparatus includes a circuit board, a conductive portion, and an easily broken portion. The circuit board is mounted with an electronic component. The conductive portion is located on a surface or the inside of the circuit board. A breakage detection mechanism detects breakage of the conductive portion by conduction. The easily broken portion is provided to at least part of the conductive portion. The easily broken portion is broken easier than other portions of the conductive portion when a stress is applied to the circuit board.
