Does the tablet give any indication that the battery is charging when the charger is connected to the tablet?
'''''If it doesn’t show that it is charging''''', leave the charger connected to the tablet for 1-2 hours and check if the tablet's battery starts to charge. It may be that the battery has become depleted and needs to be kick-started back into life.
''If it doesn’t show that it is charging when using the charger after ~2 hours,'' try connecting the tablet to a computer using an appropriate USB cable (micro USB at tablet end / USB at computer end) and check if the tablet starts to charge.
''If it does start to charge when connected to a computer'', then either the charger is faulty or perhaps the charger port on the tablet is faulty. Also let it fully charge before attempting to turn on the tablet.
