2. According to the risk of inadvertent triggering linked to the inrush current of the vehicle at the start of charging.

It is recommended to use the “Acti9 iID B type for EV” (commercial references: A9Z51225, A9Z51240, A9Z51440, A9Z51425). If not available in the country, it can be replaced with the “Acti9 iID B-SI type” (commercial references: A9Z61225, A9Z61240, A9Z61425, A9Z61440). If compliance with the EV Ready or ZE Ready label is requested, an undervoltage release (MNx) must be combined with the charging station circuit breaker. The determination of the protections and the section of the cables must be done in accordance with the local standards in force, using the following information and respecting the constraints of the electrical installation. In particular, the protection chosen must meet the requirements of IEC 61851-1 ed3.0 §13.3 by limiting the value of I²t to 80,000A²s swhich can be provided by Schneider Electric protections from the Acti9 range fulfilling the function. For more information about the protection devices to be used, please consult your Regional Sales Office.
