Molis! Have you ever heard the statement that electric cars cannot be charged when it rains? Well, this statement is often the subject of conversation, especially for those who are new to electric vehicles. But, let's discuss together, is this a myth or a fact?

Concerns about charging an electric car when it rains are reasonable. We often hear that electricity and water are “mortal enemies” because water can conduct electricity. If you're not careful, there could be a short circuit or even greater danger. But... is it true that electric car chargers are that dangerous?

Actually, electric cars and their charger devices have been designed with super strict safety standards, you know! Charging ports are usually water and dust resistant, and even meet IP (Ingress Protection) standards. So, there is no story of rainwater easily entering the electrical system. But... wait a minute, there are conditions!

You need to pay attention to where you charge. Official charging stations are usually equipped with protection such as a roof or canopy. If you're charging at home? Make sure you have a good electrical system! For example, install the charger in a protected place. So, it's safe to charge even if it's drizzling or lightly raining.

Many people think that charging an electric car in the rain is dangerous because they are afraid of getting shocked. In fact, modern charging systems have an automatic protection feature. If there is a problem, the system will immediately cut off the electric current. Cool, right? This technology makes charging in the rain safe as long as you follow the right procedure.

Eh, but don't be too relaxed! If the charger cable is damaged, the plug is loose, or there are puddles around the charging place, this is just a problem. Before charging, check the condition of your device first. “Safety first” is a must!..

Perhaps because electric cars are still relatively new in Indonesia, there are many myths circulating. Naturally, new technology is often shrouded in an “aura of mystery.” However, the more users there are, the more education there is about safety.
