Using The Charging Cable; Electrical Outlets; Extension Cords - Brammo Empulse Owner's Manual

USING THE CHARGING CABLE

Using the charging cord with a worn or damaged wall outlet may
cause a fire. Periodically, check the wall plug and charging cord while
the vehicle is charging. If the plug feels hot, unplug, the charging
cord and have the outlet replaced by a qualified electrician.
The Empulse was supplied with a Level 1 charging cable that
connects between the bikes J1772 connector and a standard 110V
wall outlet.
Charging and Battery Care
WARNING

Electrical Outlets

Ideally, the wall outlet should be grounded and on a dedicated
circuit rated at 15A or more. That means there should be no other
major appliances connected to the same circuit.
If a non dedicated circuit is used, the current rating of the wall outlet
circuit breaker could be exceeded and cause it to trip or open. If you
are having issues using the charging cord at a particular wall outlet,
try the following:
• Use another wall outlet if available
• Remove other loads on the same circuit

Extension cords

Use of an extension cord may increase the risk of electric shock or
other hazards.
The use of an extension cord is not recommended. If an extension
cord is used because of limited access to a power outlet, please
observe the following guidelines:
• The wall outlet should be RCD protected.
• The extension cord should be RCD protected
• The extension cord should be 12 or 14 gage, and must be a 3 pin
conductor.
• The extension cord should be rated for outdoor usage.
Note: The charging cord automatically detects the amount of current it
can draw from the wall outlet. Using an extension cord with a long cord
or smaller gage conductors may prevent the Empulse from charging.
