Safety functions
The CCID (Charging Circuit Inter-
rupting Device) has the following
safety features.
Electrical leakage detection func-
■
tion
If an electrical leakage is detected
during charging, the power source will
be automatically interrupted, thus pre-
venting fires or electrical shocks
caused by electrical leakage.
If the power source is interrupted, the error
warning indicator flashes.
If the power source is interrupted: P.541
Automatic check function
■
This is an automatic system check that
is run before charging begins to check
for problems in the operation of the
electrical leakage detection function.
If a malfunction is found in the electrical
leakage detection function as a result of
the check, the error warning indicator
flashes to inform the user. (P.541)
Temperature detection function
■
A temperature detection function is
equipped to the plug. While charging,
if heat is generated due to looseness
on the socket side etc., this function
suppresses heat by controlling the
charging current.
Conditions for supplying current to
■
the vehicle
The CCID (Charging Circuit Inter-
rupting Device) is designed to prevent
electrical current from being supplied
to the charging connector when it is
not connected to the vehicle, even if
1-3. Charging with the EV system
the plug is inserted into the socket.
CCID (Charging Circuit Inter-
rupting Device) indicators
Indicator operation
■
3 indicators are used to indicate the
following conditions.
Power indicator
A
Illuminates when electricity is flowing to the
CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device).
Charging indicator
B
Illuminates when charging is in progress.
Error warning indicator
C
Illuminates or flashes when there is an elec-
trical leakage or when a malfunction
occurs in the CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device).
■ If the indicator on the CCID (Charging
Circuit Interrupting Device) of the AC
charging cable illuminates or flashes
P.541
Inspecting the AC charging
cable
For safety, inspect the AC charging
cable on a routine basis.
