Product Usage Instructions
Working Scenario
Working principle of normal mode
In normal mode, the CT CLAMP dynamically adjusts the charging current to
prevent overloading when the household appliance load increases.
Working principle of solar mode
In solar mode, the CT CLAMP can be powered by solar electricity or the grid.
It can handle the residual current transfer from the solar system to the grid
and adjust charging accordingly.
Installation Guidance
Installation method
The CT CLAMP needs to be connected to the lower end of the live wire of the
circuit breaker to ensure consistent current direction.
Communication connection method
The CT CLAMP Box and EV Charger can be connected via WIFI or RS485 cable for
signal transmission.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Can the CT CLAMP handle three-phase systems?
A: Yes, there is a specific model available for three-phase systems – ORCLAMP022-3PH-79. -
Q: How does the CT CLAMP adjust the charging current in normal mode?
A: The CT CLAMP dynamically adjusts the charging current based on the load of household appliances to prevent overloading.
About CT CLAMP
CT CLAMP is available with Advice Smart MINI series AC EV Charger for home use. When the load of household appliances increases, the CT controller can adjust the charging current dynamically to avoid overloading. In solar systems, users can choose it powered by available solar electricity or Grid.
Model Selection
Working Scenario
CT CLAMP has two operating modes, one is normal mode and the other is solar mode.
Working principle of normal mode
- 1 Phase System with CT CLAMP: MSl -CT-03-1 P
- 3 Phase System with CT CLAMP: M51-CT-03-3P
Working principle of solar mode
In this mode. when there is over 7A residual current transferred from the
solar system to the Grid. Teison Smartmini wall box will start to work. In the
opposite scenario. the charger will stop charging.
Boost mode means that the charger will work with max current powered by booth solar electricity and Grid.
- 1 Phase System with CT CLAMP: MSl-CT-03-1 P
- 3 Phase System with CT CLAMP: M51-CT-03-3P
Installation Guidance
Installation method
- CT installation of single phase CT CLAMP Box (MSl-CT-03-1 P)
- CT installation of three-phase CT CLAMP Box (M51-CT-03-3P)
Communication connection method
- Option 1: RS485 Cable connection
Find the RS485 interface on the main control board and connect it as shown in the figure above. The single-phase and three-phase connection methods are the same. - Option 2: WIFI configuration instructions
- Press “Use immediately” to enter the main interface
- Press ‘”‘Config Network”, then go to the interface of the Link Wifi network. remember to choose the wifi in 2.4G and type in the correct password. to link to the router.
- Wait for a while. when showing· config success” it means the network is successfully connected
Setting
Normal mode
EVC Charging current = maximum grid current (set on APP) – household load
current
APP settings
- Under this mode. the charger will adjust the real-time charging current according to the limitation of ‘Household current’. which will avoid the overload.
- When the residual available current in household supply is less than 6A. the charger will be stopped.
Solar mode
-
Solar power supply current – Household load current >EVC charging current (set on APP)
When solar energy is more than real-time household load and residual current over 7A. the charger will work with the available solar current. No current comes from Grid. -
Solar power supply current – Household load current < EVC charging current (set on APP)
- When solar energy is less than real-time household load or residual current is lower than 7A. the charger will stop working until the residual current is over 7A.
- Users can adjust the ·solar Current Limit’ on the APP to set the min starting current.
APP settings
Boost mode
Total supply current – Household load current >EVC charging current (full
power)
Under Boost mode. the charger will output max charging current and be before the use of residual solar current. If the residual solar current can’t support the max charging current. It’s allowed to be powered by a Grid.
