ABSTRACT:
A steam generation apparatus for a washing machine includes: a case having an accommodating space for storing water; a heater disposed inside the case to heat the water stored in the case; and a heater overheating prevention unit for cutting off power of the heater when the heater is overheated above the set temperature, so that a fire and deflection of a case can be prevented by preventing overheating of the heater by cutting off power being supplied to the heater when the heater is overheated due to malfunctions of a water level sensor or a clogged spray nozzle or a clogged flow passage.
