Will water enter the charging port of new energy vehicles when it rains?

There is light rain in the Pacific car network, and there is no problem with the charging facilities. However, in order to avoid potential safety hazards, try not to charge outdoors in the rain, and give priority to finding indoor charging stations. If it is urgent, you can only charge outdoors in the rain. You must pay strict attention to the following points: First, choose a high parking space without stagnant water. Choose a parking space with higher ground to charge, so as to avoid the battery from being soaked by water. If there is water in the charging area, charging is prohibited.

Recently, there has been more rain. I believe that many new energy vehicle owners have some concerns about the safety of outdoor charging in rainy days. I can't help asking, when it rains, can new energy electric vehicles be charged outdoors?

Second, the whole process of umbrella house operation. Before charging and connecting, please carefully check whether there is water or foreign matter at the connector interfaces on the pile side and the vehicle side, and then connect after cleaning or wiping. For the sake of safety, open the umbrella all the way to avoid exposing key parts such as charging gun and charging port to rain. When pulling the gun from the charging pile, pay attention to prevent the rain from splashing on the gun head, and make sure that the gun points down when moving.

Three: Fix the charging cap as soon as you pull out your gun. After charging, complete the charging process first, then pull out the charging gun from the car body, and immediately cover the charging port of the car body when pulling out the gun.

Four: Recharge the plug. After the charging is completed, insert the charging gun back into the muzzle of the charging pile to ensure that the muzzle of the charging gun faces down during the movement. When inserting the charging gun back into the charging pile, cover it with rain gear to prevent rain from splashing on the gun head.

As for thunderstorm weather, car owners should not charge outdoors. Urgent charging, safety first!
