Charging cable
40
Electrical system
Introduction of smart fortwo electric drive (3rd Generation) • Model Series 451
Depending on the on-board charger installed,
different country-specific charging cable
versions are available:
Charging cable for charging at a household power
outlet (standard with on-board charger 3 kW)
A 7-pin charge coupling (ECE) as per IEC62196-2
is installed at the vehicle end and a country-
specific grounding contact plug is installed at the
power outlet end, e.g. Schuko, BS 1363. Monitoring
and communication with the on-board charger
takes place via a control box in the charging
cable. When the mains plug is plugged in, the
control box checks whether mains voltage and the
protective earth conductor are present and
transmits the available charging current to the
on-board charger via the CP contact.
In order to avoid overload situations, the
charging current can be adjusted to the
circumstances of the local power grid using a
button on the control box of the charging cable.
The charging connector is locked at the vehicle
end during the charging process.
