To provide a power supply system capable of supplying electric power to an external device installed outside from the vehicle side while securing safety and with a simple structure.SOLUTION: A power supply connector 17 of a power supply connection cable 18 connected to a vehicle battery 12 and a power reception connector 37 of a power reception connection cable 30 connected to an electric device 20 each include an interlock SW3 which is switched ON at the time of a connection of the power supply connector 17 and the power reception connector 37. The interlock SW3 functions as one interlock switch on a detection line IL of an interlock mechanism. A discharge control unit 16 enables power supply to the electric device 20 by permitting discharge control in a case where all of interlock switches SW1 to SW3 on the detection line IL of the interlock mechanism are ON.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】簡易な構成で、安全性を確保しつつ車両側から外部に設置された外部機器に給電を行うことができる給電システムを提供すること。【解決手段】車両バッテリ１２に接続された給電接続ケーブル１８の給電コネクタ１７と電気機器２０に接続された受電接続ケーブル３０の受電コネクタ３７とは、給電コネクタ１７と受電コネクタ３７との接続時にスイッチがオンとなるインターロックＳＷ３を有し、インターロックＳＷ３は、インターロック機構の検出線ＩＬ上の１つのインターロックスイッチとして機能し、充放電制御部１６は、インターロック機構の検出線ＩＬ上のすべてのインターロックスイッチＳＷ１～ＳＷ３がオンの場合に充放電制御を許可して電気機器２０に対する給電を可能にする。【選択図】図１
