Probably using a charger that plugs into 16A (maybe 2x 16A) sockets, which may have overloaded improperly fused wiring, caused the cables to heat up, melt insulation, and short circuit resulting from that would do the rest. For most things Thais (used to use) the existing wiring in older houses was "ok" but whenever adding something power hungry like airconditioners or water heaters, you'd always see technicians install their own fuses and cabling to the fuse box, not trusting existing wires. With EV cars, the included charger looks too convenient - it just plugs into existing sockets. But, if those sockets are connected to substandard wiring... well, then this happens.
