Charging sockets

684_011

The charging sockets for charging the high-voltage battery are located behind the charging socket covers. The charging sockets are

fitted on the fender panel on the driver side and on the passenger side. Both charging sockets are fitted as standard equipment.

The AC charging socket is located on the driver side; the CCS or DC charging socket (depending on the country version) is located

on the passenger side.

The cover can be opened by unlocking the vehicle and pressing on the cover.

If the charging connector is plugged in, the cover cannot be closed.

If one of the two flaps is open, the other is locked. The manual release mechanism is located in the closure plate between the

fender panel and the A-pillar (open the driver door/front passenger door to operate it).

Overview of the charging sockets

protected by a flap. Communication between the charging station and charging unit 1 for high-voltage battery AX4 takes place via

contacts CP and PE.

Combined Charging System Type 2 (CCS 2 or Combo 2) high-voltage battery charging socket 1 UX4

675_095

This charging socket can be used to charge the high-voltage battery with alternating current or direct current. The DC contacts are

protected by a flap. Communication between the charging station and charging unit 1 for high-voltage battery AX4 takes place via

contacts CP and PE.

Charge de Move (CHAdeMO) high-voltage battery charging socket 1 UX4

675_096

Compact charging system

The Audi e-tron GT is supplied with the second generation Audi e-tron charging system. This is located in the motor compartment

in the storage compartment. The operating unit is activated when the Audi e-tron charging system is connected to the AC power

supply. The internal contactors are open in this situation so that the vehicle charging connector is not live. The contactors are only

closed during charging.

A country-specific charging cable for connecting to the vehicle is permanently attached to the operating unit. One country-specific

connection cable with a household plug and one with an industrial plug are also provided for connection to the AC power supply.

Communication with charging unit 1 for high-voltage battery AX4 takes place via contacts CP and PE using a PWM signal.

Maximum charging level if connected to AC power:

Domestic power socket

1.8 kW (8 A)

11 kW (32 A, single-phase or three-phase)

[8]

Industrial socket

The charging level can be set to 50% or 100%. The operating units are country-specific. Please only use the Audi e-tron charging

system approved for your country.

Charging clip and connector mounting

The charging clip and the connector mounting can, for example, be secured on a garage wall. The operating unit is fitted in the

charging clip and locked in place. When the vehicle is not being charged, the charging cable can be wrapped around the charging

clip and the vehicle charging connector can be placed in the connector mounting.

[8] The charging level is set to 50 % when the system is connected to an industrial socket. The charging level can be increased to 100%. This setting

is maintained until the operating unit is disconnected from the power supply.

Diagnosis

The operating unit uses the LEDs to indicate detected faults. Fault finding is possible using the vehicle diagnostic tester and the

adapter VAS 611 009.
