NRGkick Mechanical Cable Damage / Insulation Compromise

Charger cable insulation is cracked, cut, or heavily abraded, though the charger may still function.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Cable run over by vehicle, Repeated sharp bending near plugs, UV exposure and aging, Abrasion against rough surfaces

Safety first: Damaged insulation can expose live conductors. Do not continue using a damaged cable.

1. Stop using immediately:
- Unplug from mains and vehicle.
2. Inspect extent of damage:
- If any conductor is visible or the damage is deep, the cable must be replaced.
3. Do not tape over damage:
- Temporary tape repairs are unsafe for EV charging currents and voltages.
4. Replace cable assembly:
- Contact NRGkick support for a replacement cable or charger unit, depending on design.
