An electronic device includes a detecting unit, a communicating unit, and a control unit. The detecting unit detects a temperature of a cable connected to the electronic device. The communicating unit receives cable information including information related to the cable from the cable. The control unit changes a threshold temperature from a predetermined temperature to a temperature indicated by the cable information, in a case where the temperature indicated by the cable information is higher than the predetermined temperature and the communicating unit has received the cable information. The control unit controls a power supply device to stop supplying power from the power supply device to the electronic device via the cable or controls the electronic device to stop receiving power from the power supply device via the cable, in a case where a detected temperature of the cable is higher than the threshold temperature.
