Possible Causes

Damaged enclosure gasket, Loose or improperly sealed cable glands, Incorrect mounting orientation, Cracked Schneider EVlink housing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker immediately. Do not use the charger until it is completely dry and repaired.

  • External inspection: Look for cracks, open knockouts, or missing plugs on the EVlink enclosure. Check that all cable glands are tight and properly sealed.
  • Drying: With power OFF, open the enclosure and gently dry internal components with a lint-free cloth. Allow time for complete air drying.
  • Replace seals: Inspect the door or cover gasket for damage or compression set. Replace with genuine Schneider EVlink gasket if compromised.
  • Correct mounting: Ensure the charger is mounted vertically as specified, with the cable entry points oriented correctly to shed water.
  • Professional assessment: If corrosion is present on the control board or terminals, a technician should evaluate and replace affected parts.
