Inventors include Ashwin Singh Slathia; Abhiram Sharma; Saksham Anand; Subitha D; and Kavitha J C.
The application for the patent was published on October 02, 2026, under issue no. 40/2026.
Abstract: A system (100) for detecting unsafe conditions in electric vehicle charging infrastructure may include a cable evaluation unit (102) to generate cable-response information associated with a charging cable (206), a thermal plume sensor unit (104) to acquire thermal information associated with at least one charging component, a power-control unit (108) selectively regulate or interrupt delivery of charging power, and a controller (106) communicatively associated with cable evaluation unit (102), thermal plume sensor unit (104), and power-control unit (106), wherein controller (106) to: evaluate cable-response information to detect a cable anomaly associated with charging cable (206); evaluate thermal information to detect a localized thermal anomaly associated with the at least one charging component; determine an unsafe charging condition based on detected cable anomaly, detected localized thermal anomaly, or a correlated evaluation thereof; and control power- control unit (108) to regulate or interrupt delivery of charging power upon determination of unsafe charging condition.
