new macbook pro 13" "battery is not charging" while plug-in

why is that my new macbook pro 13" wont charge for 30 mins every within 11pm-12am? is this part of the updates? is the purpose draining the battery while its plugged?

This is the new normal—


macOS Catalina 10.15.5 introduces battery health management, a feature designed to improve the lifespan of your Mac notebook's battery.


The Battery Health button appears in >SystemPreferences>Energy Saver —this feature is limited to Mac laptops with Thunderbolt 3 ports. That equates to all MacBook Pro models released since late 2016 and the Retina-capable MacBook Air models released since 2018.
