METHOD FOR DETERMINING A FAULT CHARGING STATION

The invention relates to a method for determining a faulty charging station (1) for a battery-driven vehicle, in which the charging station (1) collects usage data and transmits it to a central computing unit, the central computing unit analyses the usage data, and then, if at least one usage parameter of the charging station (1) included in the usage data does not exceed or exceeds a specified setpoint range, the charging station (1) is determined to be faulty. The central computing unit determines a malfunction of the at least one charging station (1). The method according to the invention is characterized in that at least two charging stations (1) of one or more charging station networks, which are arranged next to each other in a defined geographic area (2), are assigned to a common charging station cluster (C1, C2, C3, C4) and each of which uses a set range of parameters from a respective charging station cluster (C1, C2, C3, C4). C4) classified as a reference charging station (1) is derived from use dat
