Safety Hazards During Charging

Safety hazards during charging

With the rapid development of the electric vehicle market, charging piles have become an indispensable part of our daily infrastructure. However, safety issues during the charging process have also attracted increasing attention. Whether in public charging piles or home charging equipment, ensuring the safety of users and equipment is the top priority. At TECOO, not only is the emphasis on safety protection measures strengthened during the design process, but the production process is also strictly controlled at every level to eliminate safety hazards as much as possible. Next, this article will elaborate on the safety hazards during the charging process based on TECOO's design and production experience.

1. Overload Protection

When the current consumed by the equipment exceeds the rated power, overload issues are likely to occur. Overload not only causes damage to components in the circuit but may also lead to issues such as excessive current heating, thereby causing accidents such as fires. The charging pile control board produced by TECOO integrates a high-precision overload protection function to ensure that the equipment can operate safely under high-load conditions. By using current sensors to monitor the current of the charging pile in real-time, when the current is detected to be beyond the safe range, the circuit will automatically be cut off, thus preventing the occurrence of safety accidents.

2. Short Circuit Protection

When current flows through a place where it should not, forming a low-resistance path that causes a sudden increase in current, a short circuit is formed. Short circuits generate a large amount of heat and can instantly destroy the circuit of the charging equipment. In the design of TECOO's charging pile PCBA, hardware such as fuses or circuit breakers is usually used for protection. Once a short circuit is detected, the current will be immediately cut off to prevent larger safety hazard issues, thereby protecting the safety of users and equipment.

3. Over-temperature Protection

Temperature changes inside and outside the equipment during the charging process are common. Especially when the charging pile operates at high power for a long time, excessive temperatures can damage circuit components or shorten their lifespan. Over-temperature protection in charging piles usually relies on temperature sensors and heat dissipation design. TECOO has introduced a precise temperature control system in the manufacturing of charging piles, which monitors the internal temperature of the equipment in real-time. When the temperature reaches the set upper limit, the system will automatically reduce the charging power or suspend charging, resuming work once the temperature returns to normal.

4. TECOO's Safety Assurance

As a professional manufacturer of charging piles, TECOO is well aware of the importance of safety for charging piles. We ensure that every control board has excellent overload, short circuit, and over-temperature protection functions through a rigorous R&D process and multi-level testing. TECOO not only focuses on product functionality but also ensures that our products are competitive in the market and meet the highest quality and safety standards through optimizing production processes and supply chain management.

However, by reasonable design and effective protective measures, safety hazards can be avoided as much as possible, greatly reducing these risks. With its profound experience in the field of electronics manufacturing, TECOO is committed to providing the market with safe and reliable charging pile control solutions.
