Fixing a High Amperage EV Charger isn’t as Daunting as it Looks, Service Call #electrician

What happens here

With the problem identified, the electrician proceeds to remove the damaged charging cord from the EV charger unit. This involves carefully disconnecting the internal wiring connections that secure the old cable. Once the old cable is removed, a new charging cord is installed. The internal wires of the new cord are meticulously connected to the appropriate terminals within the charger, ensuring a secure and correct electrical connection. After wiring is complete, the outer cover of the charger is re-secured.

Goal: Replace the damaged EV charging cable with a new, functional one.

  • New EV Charging Cord — Replacement for the damaged cord
  • Screwdriver — To disconnect/connect wiring terminals and re-secure the cover
