Nivion Tesla Charger Adapter: Electrical System recall

What's wrong

N&B Mobility Solutions LLC (Nivion) is recalling certain Nivion NSP01 charger adapters. Insufficient clearance between direct-current (DC) busbars inside the charger adapter can lead to electrical arcing. Also, the adapter is missing an electrical status switch to prevent disconnection while charging.

Why it matters

Inadequate clearance between DC busbars may cause electrical arcing, increasing the risk of a fire. Additionally, disconnecting the adaptor during charging increases the risk of injury by electrical shock.

Nivion will replace the defective adapters, free of charge. Owners may contact Nivion customer service at 1-307-243-4122.
