Charger shows E005; charging stops shortly after starting or will not start at all.

Safety: Overcurrent can overheat wiring. If you smell burning or see discoloration, stop using the charger and switch off the breaker immediately.

• Check configuration: Using the EVBox app or installer interface, verify that the maximum charging current is correctly set for the circuit breaker rating (e.g., 16 A on a 16 A circuit). Correct any misconfiguration.
• Test with another vehicle: If possible, connect a different EV to see if E005 occurs. If only one vehicle triggers the error, the issue may be with the car's onboard charger.
• Inspect connector and cable: Look for melted plastic, discoloration, or hot spots on the Type 2 plug and cable. Any sign of overheating requires cable replacement.
• Internal inspection (qualified): With power off, open the EVBox and inspect the current sensor (often a current transformer or shunt on the power board) and surrounding wiring for burn marks or loose connections.
• If E005 persists with normal configuration and no visible damage: The current sensor or power board is likely defective and should be replaced by a certified technician.
