Can Open-Air Charging Piles Charge in the Rain?
1 Answers
Open-air charging piles can charge in the rain. Below are relevant details about charging piles: 1. Waterproof capability: During the construction of charging piles, waterproof materials are installed at the base of the charging facilities. This ensures the lower 20~30 cm of the charging pile body has waterproof submersion capability. 2. Charging pile monitoring: Most charging piles use SMC fiberglass material, ensuring long-term outdoor use and resistance to complex weather conditions. 3. Charging interface: Even though charging piles have waterproof materials, it is recommended not to charge during rain. Even if manufacturers install insulating materials at the charging pile interface, charging in rainy conditions can still pose hazards.
