TYPES OF CHARGING
There are two types of charging provided
in your Tigor EV – Slow and Fast charging
methods. In Slow Charge, plug the charg-
ing gun (provided with the car) into a 230V
electrical outlet. For Fast Charging, go to
the nearest Fast Charging station (CCS

tion.
Slow Charging (AC Charging)
In electricity grid, electric power is AC •
(alternating current) by nature. How-
ever, electric power in battery is DC
(Direct Current) by nature. Hence, to
charge an electric car by AC grid,

DC. And to convert AC power to DC
power On-board Charger is used. This
cables are free of moisture before using
the charging gun. Never connect the
charging gun to the mains with wet or
moist hands or when the charging gun
is wet.

point must be approved/certified by a
qualified electrician before using the
charging gun. Coupler Receptacle has

ual-Current Circuit Device (RCD).
