Charger leaks water from the enclosure after rain or washing the car nearby.

Safety first: Turn OFF power immediately if water is suspected inside the charger. Do not use until fully inspected and dried.

• 1. Inspect exterior: Look for cracks, gaps around cable entries, or missing gaskets on the cover. Check that all knockouts and conduit entries are properly sealed.
• 2. Open and dry (qualified): With power OFF, remove the cover and gently blot any visible moisture. Allow the unit to dry in a warm, dry environment for at least 24–48 hours.
• 3. Replace gaskets and seals: Install new enclosure gaskets and properly rated cable glands or conduit fittings to restore the IP rating.
• 4. Correct mounting: Ensure the charger is mounted vertically and not tilted in a way that allows water to pool on top or run into openings.
• 5. Inspect for corrosion: After drying, check boards and terminals for corrosion. Clean minor corrosion; replace heavily affected components.

When to call a professional: For significant water damage or if unsure about safety, contact a qualified technician.
