Abstract: A system and method for ensuring a defined position of a charging connector includes a signal transmitter, a corresponding signal detector unit for detecting the signal of the signal transmitter, and a holder for holding the charging connector in the defined position. A detector device detects an orientation and/or movement of the charging connector in an environmental coordinate system. The system detects a presence of the charging connector in the defined position and determines the mechanical condition of the interface or a housing of the charging connector via the signal of the signal transmitter, and compares the orientation and/or movement of the charging connector with a corresponding orientation and/or movement of the charging connector to be expected when the charging connector is in the defined position.

Abstract: An arrangement for charging of electric vehicles includes a charging connector and a charging cable. The connector includes a connector body with first and second zones, the two zones being separate from each other. The first zone hosts a mating interface with electrical contacts for mating the connector with a corresponding socket of an electric vehicle. The electrical contacts are electrically coupled to the cable. The second zone includes a tube in which the cable is guided from an opening of the tube, which is arranged on that side of the second zone that faces away from the first zone to the electrical contacts, which are located in the first zone, and a handle for grabbing the connector with a human hand, the handle being separate from the tube. The second zone is Y-shaped where the tube is formed by one upper leg and the lower of the Y.

Abstract: A converter arrangement connects to a DC source or load and to a plurality of AC terminals. Each converter arrangement includes a DC part with two capacitors arranged in parallel to the DC source or DC load and a neutral DC point between them. At least one AC leg is connected to a neutral AC point via an AC leg capacitor. A pre-charge unit is arranged at each leg of the AC terminal. The method includes opening a decoupling switch and all second AC switches; loading the pre-charge unit; sequentially closing each second AC switch; measuring at each closing step a voltage between each AC leg of the second converter arrangement; and determining the stuck AC switch of the second converter arrangement based on the measured voltage.
