There is provided an electrical power supply apparatus (70) having an input for receiving mains electrical power (10), supplied to the input via a protective element (30), and a connector (75), configured for coupling to a device for the supply of electrical power to the device. The device may be an electric vehicle for example. The power supply apparatus (70) includes a controller (85), configured to control a contactor (80) to connect or to disconnect the supply of electrical power from the input to the connector (75). The apparatus (70) also includes a component (90), controllable by the controller (85), to cause an electrical condition to be generated at the input. The electrical condition is of a type that is detectable by the protective element (30) and, when detected, causes the protective element (30) to interrupt the supply of mains electrical power (10) to the input.
