Why Does the New Energy Charging Gun Get Hot?

[AbelLee]

New energy charging gun heating may be caused by poor socket contact, which can be resolved by replacing it with a high-quality national standard socket. However, the power supply line should not be less than 1.5 square millimeters. Charging guns are divided into DC guns and AC guns. DC guns, which handle high current and high power, are generally equipped at fast-charging stations for new energy vehicles. Household charging typically uses AC charging piles or portable charging guns. AC Charging Guns: There are mainly three types: Type1, Type2, and GB/T, also known as American standard, European standard, and Chinese standard. Of course, Tesla has its own standard charging interface, but under pressure, Tesla has begun to adapt its standards to market conditions to make its cars more market-compatible, just as domestically produced Teslas must be equipped with Chinese standard charging ports. DC Charging Guns: DC charging guns generally correspond to AC charging guns, with each region having its own standards, except for Japan, which is a bit of an exception. Japan's DC charging gun interface is CHAdeMO, though not all Japanese cars use this DC charging port—only some Mitsubishi and Nissan new energy models utilize the following CHAdeMO DC charging port.
