LG Electronics Introduces KC-Certified Safety Features for EV Chargers in Korea
LG Electronics Inc. has introduced dual overcharge prevention technology in its 7-kilowatt (kW) slow electric vehicle (EV) chargers to improve safety and boost its EV charger business in South Korea. EV chargers require KC Safety certification to be approved for import and sale in Korea.
The new safety features include a smart control system and a power cut-off mechanism after charging completion, forming a double-layered safety net to prevent fire hazards. The smart control technology uses real-time data transmission between the EV battery and the control system to monitor charging status and stop charging when necessary. It is certified under ISO15118 VAS and OCPP protocols, meeting the Ministry of Environment’s subsidy requirements for slow chargers and enabling future global expansion. Additional safeguards include compliance with the EU’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) standards and performance testing at LG’s EV charger facility in Pyeongtaek.
Feel free to contact us any time if you need assistance or have any questions regarding Korean certifications like KC, KC EMC, KCs, KCs for explosion safety products or KGS factory registration.
