Go anywhere with 'EV'

The Start:

Didn’t want to take leave at work so have decided to keep this as weekend trip.

So have completed Friday’s allocation at work on Thursday late evening – unable to take rest because of this.

Started around 2 AM from my home after packing things and plan in place… - headed towards Kolar

Have been to Kolar before

– so no hiccups here- reached there around 3.45 - 4 Am and plugged in (colleagues home – I don’t have to wake him up as there is no gate and also 5A plug is outside – so no hesitation to go there!)

Started around 6 - 6.30 AM in the morning – started towards Palamner which is border area for both Karnataka and Telugunadu which is exciting as I can speak telugu and confident I can manage things from there

had to reset the system as dash board after few km
Freezes

Have reached Palamner @slvecomotors – hero Eclectric showroom in about 2.5 hrs as was doing low speeds just to make to sure I reach there with at least small range left as this is the first time am going to that area

Reached there in the morning and called the contact person Pulugendu who was nice – may be am early – they haven’t started yet

A person showed-up in few minutes and helped me to park vehicle and showed me the plug available in the corner of the showroom……

Now the moment of Truth…

I plugged the charger with the help of Extension cable I carried and to my surprise light on charger turned red – no Earthing/Grounding!!!

Dashboard showing – not charging!!!

what next?
