In-cable control and protecting device:
Electronic module located between infrastructure and electric vehicle
to increase the level of protection and control the charging process.
Pulse-width modulation:
Mode of transmission of the communication information
The charging connector has a resistor coding that can be
analyzed by the electric vehicle. The resistance value defines
the maximum permissible current of the charging cable in
terms of the cable's cross section.
The miswiring detection system monitors the wall socket.
The incoming PE (ground conductor) and the potential of
the wiring (phase and neutral wire) are checked.
If the plug is inserted or removed during the charging process
(with force applied), there may be arcing that could damage
the plug and socket.
Short circuit between the communication cable (CP) and the
ground conductor (PE). This fault means that the vehicle cannot
communicate with the charging module. Charging is not possible.
Ordinary type A residual current devices sensitive to pulse current
can detect both purely sinusoidal alternating currents and pulsating
direct current leakage. Smooth DC leakage is not detected.
Independent organization that inspects and certifies products
for the US market.
