Method for Controlling a Charging Infrastructure

The invention relates to a method for controlling a charging infrastructure comprising a charging station for charging a vehicle having a vehicle-side charging interface, wherein the charging station comprises a robot that carries a robot-side charging interface for establishing a charging connection with the vehicle-side charging interface, wherein the robot comprises a main base and a compliance assembly that is arranged kinematically between the main base and the robot-side charging interface for providing a compliance, wherein the method comprises in series a positioning phase in which the robot-side charging interface is moved to an initial connecting position, and a connecting phase in which the robot-side charging interface establishes a charging connection with the vehicle-side charging interface, wherein in the positioning phase a compliance value is compared with a positioning intervention value and a positioning instruction is changed when the compliance value exceeds a positioning intervention value, and in the connecting phase the compliance value is compared with a connecting intervention value and a connecting instruction is changed when the compliance value exceeds the connecting intervention value, wherein the positioning intervention value differs from the connecting intervention value.
