Safety aspects are comprehensively linked to the charging of electric vehicles, where maintaining the balance of the electrical network is crucial to prevent asymmetric loading. The article’s primary aim is to inform readers about the introduction of railway station charging stations and highlight the proactive measures taken to address possible technical problems that can arise during recharging. Fire intervention is a key part of the safety plan, ready to be deployed when an electric vehicle catches fire and poses a risk to the surroundings.
