I'm not an expert, but I'll assume that the opposite is as dangerous. I think that if you unplug a car that is charging car, by tilting the connector in the wrong way ypu might have a dangerous hazard both for the car and for the person unplugging it.
DC chargers can be quite powerful (480V/100A), so I really doubt it's a good idea do mess with them in general.
- phkahler 4y agoThe is a signal in the connector that is designed to disconnect first to disable charging before the high current conductors disconnect. It may be a leftover from the AC charge plug though, so not sure if it's sufficient for high power DC. Still a crappy standard.
