An electric vehicle 2 is supplied with power from a power supply 1 via a cable 10 suspended from an anchor 20. The anchor is attached to a mount 40 on the vehicle and detachable from the mount by tension in a first portion 12 of the cable between the anchor and the power supply. A second portion 15 of the cable between the anchor and the vehicle remains slack when the anchor is attached to the mount. A disconnection switch (30, figure 9) is operable by detachment of the anchor to interrupt the power supply from the cable to the vehicle. The switch may be operable to re-establish the supply of electric power by reattachment of the anchor. A control circuit on the vehicle may be provided with a separate reset control. The mount may be mounted on support structure 50, comprising a swivel assembly (51 figure 1). The anchor may include a handgrip 25 and may be magnetically attachable to a downward-facing portion of the mount. A method of using the mount is also claimed.
