■ Temperature detection function
A temperature detection function is equipped to the plug. While charging, if heat is
generated due to looseness on the outlet side etc., this function suppresses heat by
controlling the charging current.
■ Conditions for supplying current to the vehicle
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is designed to prevent electrical
current from being supplied to the charging connector when it is not connected to
the vehicle, even if the plug is inserted into the outlet.
