As an example, the power receiving device 10 to be monitored may be the power receiving devices 10A to 10C that are security devices. For example, while the resident is out, the power receiving devices 10A to 10C, which are security devices, shift to the operation mode based on the control of the control device 30. Therefore, for example, while the resident is out, the power receiving devices 10A to 10C, which are security devices, continue to consume power. For this reason, for example, while the resident is out, the power receiving devices 10A to 10C, which are security devices, can continuously transmit a power transmission request signal requesting power transmission.

When the control unit 24 determines that the notification signal is received from the power receiving device 10 to be monitored (step S20: Yes), the control unit 24 proceeds to the process of step S21. On the other hand, when determining that the notification signal is not received from the monitoring target power receiving apparatus 10 (step S20: No), the control unit 24 proceeds to the process of step S22.
　ステップＳ２１の処理では、制御部２４は、送電要求信号の発信停止を通知する通知信号を発信した受電装置１０を、監視対象の受電装置１０から除外する。 In the process of step S21, the control unit 24 excludes the power receiving device 10 that has transmitted the notification signal for notifying the transmission stop of the power transmission request signal from the monitored power receiving device 10.

In this case, the power transmission device 20 has a monitoring mode. In this case, the control unit 24 of the power transmission device 20 performs the same processing as the control unit 34 of the control device 30. For example, when detecting a user operation on the monitoring button 31A of the input unit 31 included in the power transmission device 20, the control unit 24 shifts the operation mode of the power transmission device 20 to the monitoring mode. Furthermore, when the control unit 24 shifts the operation mode of the power transmission device 20 to the monitoring mode, the communication unit 22 transmits a driving instruction to the power receiving devices 10A to 10C illustrated in FIG. Further, for example, when the control unit 24 detects a user operation on the release button 31B of the input unit 31 included in the power transmission device 20, the control unit 24 cancels the monitoring mode of the power transmission device 20.
