Abstract
Method for operating a charging station for electric vehicles wherein a switching state of at least one fuse arranged between a grid connection and a charging cable connection is monitored and with the aid of a contact state a connection to and a separation from the charging cable connection by a charging cable is monitored. The charging station can continue to be kept in operation in the case of a fault at the vehicle side when an opening of the fuse occurring during a connection of the charging cable to the charging cable connection is detected with the aid of the monitored switching state and in the case of an opening detected in this manner following a detected separation of the charging cable from the charging cable connection, the fuse is autonomously closed.
