Abstract
A charging inlet assembly includes a housing having a DC section with DC terminals received in DC terminal channels for mating with a DC charging connector and AC terminals, including a proximity terminal, received in AC terminal channels for mating with an AC charging connector. The charging inlet assembly includes an HMI assembly coupled to the rear of the housing having a control circuit board, a charging indicator coupled to the control circuit board visible from the front of the housing to indicate a charging status of the charging inlet assembly, and a proximity resistor assembly coupled to the housing. The proximity resistor assembly includes a resistor coupled to the control circuit board and a cable connector connected between the control circuit board and the proximity terminal.
