My iPad won't charge when plugged in

These support pages should help with troubleshooting battery and charging issues:

Troubleshooting generally requires substitution of the Power Adapter and cable for another known-good item. Most models of iPad require a Power Adapter rated at 12W or greater to reliably charge. 5W Power Adapters intended for older models of iPhone are inadequate to charge an iPad; if the iPad charges at all, charging will be very slow.

Be aware that many computer USB ports cannot source sufficient power to charge an iPad. Unless explicitly designed for charging connected devices, computer USB ports are typically limited to 0.5-1A @5V (i.e., 2.5-5.0W).

If you continue to experience difficulties when using an appropriate Power Adapter of 12W or greater, you might be best advised to seek assistance directly from from Apple Support - and request a remote diagnostic test. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively and perhaps easier, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad, Power Adapter and cable(s):

A few troubleshooting steps

are you using an ipad charger? Some chargers are only meant for phones and only put out half the power that an ipad wants.

are you using a cable that will support the right amount of power? I’ve had cables that do not carry enough power so my ipad will charge slowly.

have you or are you able to swap out the charging block, cable and outlet? If you do that and the problem persists then it may be an issue with your device.

if it is an issue with your device then the only thing to do is to make an appointment at an Apple Store or authorized service provider and have them check it out.
