[0032] In order to better understand the present invention, the working principle and action of the vehicle-mounted high-power discharge socket are described below.
[0033] Under normal circumstances, the OBC will be connected to this socket, and the control mechanism will give the OBC a 12V level, so that the OBC will generate AC voltage output and realize charging. At the same time, after the high-voltage output port detects the AC voltage, the backlight will light up. When the relay is closed, there is AC voltage in the socket part, and the indicator light is green.
[0034] If an error state is detected, the relay will be turned on, and the socket will have no AC voltage. At the same time, a low level is given to the OBC, and the OBC stops AC output. The indicator light is red and flashes. When the fault is eliminated, by pressing the reset button, the high-voltage socket will give the OBC a high level again, so that the OBC generates AC voltage output.
[0035] When the lid is detected to be closed, a low level is given to the OBC, and the OBC stops outputting AC voltage. The background light goes out.
