Possible Causes

Undersized supply wiring causing voltage drop, Loose line connections, Overloaded circuit shared with other high-current devices, Faulty internal power supply module

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Work with a licensed electrician for live voltage and load measurements.

  • Check breaker and wire size: Verify the circuit breaker and conductor gauge match the charger’s installation manual. Undersized wire can cause excessive voltage drop.
  • Measure voltage under load: Have an electrician measure voltage at the charger while attempting to start a charge. If voltage sags below the minimum rating, reduce load on the circuit or upgrade wiring.
  • Inspect terminations: With power OFF, tighten all line and ground connections inside the charger and at the breaker panel.
  • Dedicated circuit: Ensure the EV charger is on a dedicated circuit and not sharing with other large appliances.

If supply voltage is stable and within spec but E05 continues, the internal low-voltage power supply or sensing circuit on the control board may be failing and should be replaced.
