Possible Causes

Moisture ingress causing transient leakage, Water in Type 2 socket, Micro-cracks in enclosure seals, Condensation on internal PCBs

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Do not force operation in wet conditions if faults occur.

  • 1. Inspect socket: Look for water droplets or corrosion inside the Type 2 socket. Dry thoroughly and consider using a protective cover when not in use.
  • 2. Check cable entry: Ensure the cable gland is tight and the cable sheath is intact.
  • 3. Examine enclosure: Look for cracks or gaps around the housing and mounting points.
  • 4. Improve weather protection: Install a small canopy or shield above the charger to reduce direct rain exposure.
  • 5. Replace compromised components: If repeated moisture-related faults occur, replace the socket module, gaskets, or entire backplate as needed.
