Charger management device and charging control device

A charging control device for controlling charge from an external charger to a driving battery of a vehicle, the charging control device comprising:

• a charging error detection unit configured to detect a charging error caused between the external charger and the vehicle connected to each other during a charging process of the driving battery of the vehicle by the external charger, wherein the charging process delivers power from the external charger to the driving battery of the vehicle, and the charging process occurs subsequent to a pre-charging process;
• a charging status information generation unit configured to generate charging status information on a status acquired when the external charger and the vehicle are connected to conduct charging;
• and
• a communication unit configured to transmit the charging status information to an external device via a network,
• wherein
• as the charging status information, the charging status information generation unit generates information including vehicle information on the vehicle, charger information on the external charger connected with the vehicle, and charging error information on the charging error detected by the charging error detection unit,
• the communication unit acquires from an external device compatibility information that is generated based on the charging status information and that relates to compatibility between the external charger and the vehicle, and
• the charging control device includes a charging control unit configured to stop charging if the external charger and the vehicle connected to each other are incompatible with each other according to the compatibility information,
• the compatibility information includes incompatibility information on incompatibility between a vehicle and an external charger between which a charging error has occurred,
• the incompatibility information includes a charging error that has occurred between the vehicle and the external charger that are compliant with a same charging standard, and
• management storage unit stores the compatibility information so that incompatibility between the vehicle and the external charger that are connected is identifiable before charging begins.
