Abstract
A non-contact power supply system supplies electricity in a non-contact manner between a power transmission coil of a power supply device 1 and a power reception coil of a vehicle. The vehicle 2 has a wireless communication unit that transmits to the power supply device a startup signal that starts up the power supply device. The power supply device has a reception unit that receives the startup signal. A controller controls the power supply device based on the startup signal. The communication unit transmits a first startup signal when the vehicle is traveling, and transmits a second startup signal when the vehicle is stopped. The controller controls the electricity supply device according to a first control flow when the first startup signal has been received, and controls the power supply device according to a second control flow when the second startup signal has been received.
