Hi, What is the on board charger? I got the traction control message this morn and recovery coming tomoz
As far as electric cars are concerned we have 2 ways of charging them.
One is to plug it into a charger which supplies a DC voltage and feeds the battery management system (BMS) to charge the batteries.
The second is to plug it into the wall or a similar power supply such as a podpoint at Tescos.
The car has a charger in it, in the case of the Mokka it has three which can connect together in clever ways to allow them to supply either 7.4 kW or 11 kW to the BMS.
The charger or group of chargers which are mounted in the car are referred to as on-board chargers or simply OBC.
If you charge from home you'll be plugging a cable into something fitted to you wall which is nothing more than a smart switch which feeds 240v to the car's charging socket which connects to the OBC which connects to the BMS so not much more complicated than charging a mobile khobe with the exception of the charger gets plugged straight into a wall socket for the phone rather than linking to it via a cable.
