Ground fault breaker in charging cable

The charging cable1 has a circuit breaker that helps protect against current overloads and thermal overheating.

 Warning

The vehicle may only be charged from approved, grounded wall outlets. If the electrical circuit or electrical socket's capacity is not known, let a licensed electrician inspect the electrical circuit's capacity. Using a charge level that exceeds the electrical circuit's or electrical outlet's capacity may start a fire or damage the electrical circuit.

 Warning

The charging cable's internal current breaker helps protect the vehicle's charging system but cannot ensure that a current overload will never occur.
