...

Power management of master charging station decides, based on information provided by Load Guard, what target current to set on its connector and other stations of the cluster. If necessary, it will increase or decrease the charging power or even stop it completely to prevent the fuses from switching off due to overcharging.

Maintenance

It is recommended to perform a visual check and test of the protection elements at least once per year if local regulations do not state otherwise. It is possible that the requirement is to check more often, e.g., every three months, or every month. The check should also be documented.

...

1

Measuring the voltage on all phases and between neutral and earth wires.

2

Measuring resistance between grounding and housing / door of the station.

3

Test of RCD protection 1 with the test button (in case of failure, change of RCD is required or removal of charging station from operation).

4

Test of RCD protection 2 with the test button (in case of failure, change of RCD is required or removal of charging station from operation).

5

Performance check: switch off all the main fuses and reboot of charging station.

6

Check-up of pins in socket 1 (no corrosion should be visible).

7

Check-up of pins in socket 2 (no corrosion should be visible).

8

Checking the socket 1 (socket should be free of dirt and foreign objects).

9

Checking the socket 2 (socket should be free of dirt and foreign objects).

10

Login with RFID card (if RFID authorization is enabled and online check is made).

11

Login with SMS (if SMS authorization is enabled and online check is made).

12

Login with mobile- app (if APP authorization is enabled and online check is made).

13

Start charging on socket 1 with a load (with EV or tester + load).

14

Display of power consumption on LCD display of the charging station for socket 1 (for this step approx. 5 minutes is needed).

15

Stop charging at socket 1.

16

Logout and re-login.

17

Start charging on socket 2 with a load (with EV or tester + load).

18

Display of power consumption on the screen for socket 2 (for this step approx. 5 minutes is needed).

19

Stop charging at socket 2.

20

Check-up of the mechanical condition of the housing and optional labels.

21

Check-up of the condition of LCD display (mechanical or other defects).

22

Verifying that the latest version of SW is loaded on the charger

23

Optional update if it is part of the product offer. (It can be implemented by Etrel locally or it can be done remotely from client’s back end).
