Limitations
This charger is designed for use in the UK, specifically with electrical and environmental conditions expected in this country. It is intended for use with Electric passenger vehicles. It is not to be used to provide electrical charge to any other form of battery operated vehicle that does not make use of Mode 3 charging. The certification for this charger allows the charger to be used within residential and industrial environments where there is restricted access.

Starting a charge on bp pulse pro charger lite

1. Lift the flap to access the socket.
2. Insert the charging cable plug into the electric vehicle before connecting to the charging socket. Always make sure the plug is fully inserted into the socket.
3. Tap your RFID card onto the reader.
4. The status indicator will begin to blink green, this is due to the randomised start delay which may take up to 10 minutes. Once complete the charger will begin a charge and the status indicator will start pulsing blue. If a schedule has been set the indicator blinks blue and red.

Ending a charge on bp pulse pro charger lite

1. Tap your RFID card once on to the reader.
2. Wait for the LED indicator to turn constant blue.
3. Remove the charging cable plug from the socket.

Randomised delay start

• The randomised delay start is a requirement for all private chargepoints in the UK, which helps to ensure the grid can support the extra demand for electricity as EV adoption accelerates.
• Every time a charge session is initiated, a delay of up to 10 minutes will be applied to the start of charge session.
• The status light will blink green until charging starts.
• Where a charge session is scheduled to start at a specified time e.g. during off-peak times, a delay of up to 10 minutes will also be applied to the start of the charge session.
• The status light will blink green until charging starts.
• The randomised delay can be overidden by tapping your RFID card twice on the RFID reader.
• The randomised delay can not be permanently disabled. It can only be overridden as described above.

Scheduling and off-peak charging

• Our chargers are pre-configured with a default off-peak charging schedule.
• This schedule ensures that EVs are charged only during off-peak hours when there’s typically less demand on the grid.
• The off-peak hours are 10pm – 8am and 11am – 4pm Monday to Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday.
• Upon first use, or at any time afterwards, the schedule can be edited or removed or if no schedule is present, a new schedule can be created via our web portal or by contacting our customer care team on 0330 016 5126 or heretohelp@bp.com Once a schedule is set and a vehicle is connected, the status indicator will blink blue and red for 5 minutes.
• Charging will start at the scheduled time and the status indicator will turn a constant blue.
• There may be occasions when a driver will need to start a charge immediately in which case the scheduling can be overridden by tapping your RFID card twice on the RFID reader.

Load Management

• Load Management is managing the charging current to allow the available power to be shared across all connected sockets supplied by the same electrical circuit.
• Where a power limit for a group of chargers has been set, the chargers will automatically manage the amount of power available to each vehicle so as not to exceed the maximum safe current rating of the circuit.
• Depending on the number of vehicles connected to the same circuit at any given time, users may experience slower charge speeds.
• Consideration should be given to how much time is allowed for vehicles to charge when load management is deployed.
