A charging cable A for use in charging a battery of an electrically-driven vehicle includes a power plug 14 to be detachably connected to a receptacle outlet 12 of a commercially available power source, a charging coupler 16 to be detachably connected to the electrically-driven vehicle C, a temperature sensor 14a for detecting a temperature of an electric circuit between the power plug 14 and the charging coupler 16, and a charging device 20 having a controller 20a for controlling a current value that flows from the power plug 14 to the charging coupler 16. This configuration can minimize the charging time and enhance the durability between the charging cable and the receptacle outlet and between the charging cable and the charging coupler.
