  • Systems and methods for interrupting a charging circuit of an electric vehicle
    Patent number: 12752660
    Abstract: Systems and methods for interrupting a charging circuit configured to facilitate regulating an electric current to an electric vehicle charger that is electrically coupled to an electrical control switch. An electric current is transmitted from the electrical control switch to a power distribution block that is configured to split the electric current to, in part, a current transformer, via a first compact circuit protector, and the current transformer is configured to further transmit the electric current to an electrical device. The electric current that is split from the power distribution block is further transmitted, via a second compact circuit protector, to a contactor that has a default position that is closed to further transmit the electric current to the electric vehicle charger. Upon activation of an electrical device, the contactor is energized to open, thereby interrupting current flow to the electric vehicle charger.
