charging schedule

The Combined Charging System (CCS) is a standard for charging electric vehicles. It can use Combo 1 or Combo 2 connectors to provide power at up to 350 kilowatts. These two connectors are extensions of the IEC 62196 Type 1 and Type 2 connectors, with two additional direct current (DC) contacts to allow high-power DC fast charging.
The Combined Charging System allows AC charging using the Type 1 and Type 2 connector depending on the geographical region. This charging environment encompasses charging couplers, charging communication, charging stations, the electric vehicle and various functions for the charging process such as load balancing and charge authorization.
Electric vehicles or electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) are CCS-capable if they support either AC or DC charging according to the standards listed by the CCS. Automobile manufacturers that support CCS include BMW, Daimler, FCA, Ford, Jaguar, General Motors, Groupe PSA, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, MG, Polestar, Renault, Rivian, Tesla, Mahindra, Tata Motors and Volkswagen Group.Competing charging systems for high-power DC charging include CHAdeMO (Japanese), Guobiao recommended-standard 20234 (Chinese), and Tesla Supercharger (Tesla).

    MG4, Zappi and Octopus Intelligent Go

    This is a heads up for anybody with the above gear but I also know it's happened with other cars and maybe other chargers used with Octopus. A month ago a neighbour with identical gear as us had a problem, his car wouldn't charge for 2 days and he had no schedule. It took quite a while of...

    Why does my MG always revert to 100%

    Hi, As above: Why does my MG alway revert to Long Journey mode (100%), even if I set it to 80%. This is an ongoing issue. The methodology was: there was a schedule on the charger (Zappi) to take advantage of Octopus Intelligent Go, and the amount was limited by the car (80%). I was nagged...

    FREE Octopus electric but how to override their charging schedule

    Hello, This may be a dumb question but I can't fathom how to make use of the free electric tomorrow morning on Octopus. FREE between 7-9 Sunday 24th Nov. So here's the problem. I've set my 7kW Zappi to kick in 7-9 (so I don't have to get up at 7 and plug in); but when I plug the car in Octopus...
