INDUCTION ENERGY TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

An induction energy transmission system includes a set-down plate, a supply unit arranged below the set-down plate and including a supply induction element for inductively providing energy, and a set-down unit for setting down on the set-down plate. The set-down unit includes a receiving induction element for receiving the inductively provided energy and a safety switch element for activating and deactivating the receiving induction element. A control unit controls the supply unit and a communications unit wirelessly communicates between the set-down unit and the control unit. The control unit communicates with the set-down unit for exchange of a parameter via the communications unit within a communication time window in which the receiving induction element is deactivated by the safety switch element, and measures a self-inductance of the supply induction element within the communication time window.
