NOTE: When detailing Load Balancing, this manual assumes the installation of a single chargepoint. Whilst multiple chargepoints can be connected in a similar way, installers may wish to consider connecting/monitoring using a third- party, compliant energy management solution.
If connecting/monitoring via third-party equipment, make sure you are fully aware of the manufacturer’s instructions so that the device/system can be installed correctly and in conjunction with the chargepoint installation.

About Load Balancing
This chargepoint has a Load Balancing capability which is designed to prevent overloads of the property’s power supply when a vehicle is being charged.
Once correctly installed and configured, the system will monitor the power being drawn by the charging process and will compare this to the permissible maximum for the property as a whole (which is set as part of the configuration). With this information, the power made available for charging can be dynamically adjusted to reduce the load before the property’s maximum load is exceeded.
NOTES:
· Load balancing ONLY controls power made available to the VEHICLE. It does not control power to other equipment and it is still possible for that equipment to overload the property’s power supply.
· Depending on the manufacturer, electric vehicles need a minimum of around 6 Amps to charge. If the available power is below this level, the vehicle may stop the charge session.
· The lower the power available for charging, the more slowly the vehicle will be charged.

Product Specification

About Demand Side Response
Demand Side Response (DSR) is where the chargepoint and the electricity provider are in communication with each other. The electricity provider will control the chargepoint remotely via the chargepoint software to reduce the power it draws when it is needed by higher priorities in the area and will increase power when those priorities reduce.
If the chargepoint is used with a DSR agreement in place, peak and off-peak charging will not be implemented because the power company’s systems will control the charging process.
About PME (PEN) Protection
The PME (PEN) protection system removes the need to install a dedicated earth for the chargepoint although an earth is still required via the power cable.
In the event of a fault, the system will break all power cable connections between the chargepoint and the vehicle.

Install Load Balancing
NOTE: This manual assumes the installation of a single chargepoint. Whilst multiple chargepoints can be connected to a property in a similar way, installers may wish to consider connecting/monitoring via third-party equipment. If connecting/monitoring via third-party equipment, make sure you are fully aware of the manufacturer’s instructions so that the device/system can be installed correctly and in conjunction with the chargepoint installation.
If load balancing will be enabled on this charge point it should, ideally, be installed alongside the `standard installation’.
If installing at a later date, work may be required to enable entry of the Current Transformer (CT) cable into the chargepoint enclosure.
Overview Power coming into the property is monitored by a Current Transformer (CT) that clamps around the property’s incoming power cable and is then connected to the chargepoint.
· The CT has a cable allowing it to be connected to the chargepoint. · Additional cable may be added to the CT cable but to maintain a good signal, it is
recommended that cables extensions are kept as short as possible.
Connect the CT to the Property Do not use third-party CTs. They may not be compatible with the system and the point at which load balancing will take place cannot be guaranteed.
1. These instructions are for a single current transformer (CT) used with a 1-phase charger. Connection of CTs used with a 3-phase charger is very similar and is explained below this section.
2. The CT clamp should be positioned around the Live (positive) cable between the Meter and the Consumer Unit.
· The arrow shown on the CT clamp must point in the direction of electrical flow TOWARD the consumer unit.
· Alternatively, if required, the CT clamp may be positioned on the Negative cable leaving the Consumer Unit. The arrow on the CT clamp must point in the direction of electrical flow AWAY from the consumer unit.
3. Release the clip on the CT clamp then open the clamp.
4. Place the CT clamp around the L1 cable.
· Make sure the arrow on the clamp points in the correct direction.
· No other cables should pass though the CT clamp.
5. Close the CT clamp and secure it with the clip.

Figure 10 Single-Phase System CT Clamp Positioning

Figure 11 three-Phase System CT Clamp Positioning

Connect a 3-Phase CT to the Property 3-Phase electrical supplies have 3x Live cables (L1, L2 & L3). This means that for a 3-phase system where load balancing is required, a CT clamp must be installed around each one of L1, L2 and L3. Unlike a 1-phase system, connecting the CTs to the neutral cable will not allow the system to function correctly as there are 3 CTs and only 1 Neutral cable.
1. Connect a CT cable clamps to each of L1, L2 and L3 as illustrated above.
Extend the CT Cable If required, a CT cable may be extended up to a theoretical maximum of 100m.
· To avoid interference and reduce the loss of signal, extension cables should be as short as possible. Extensions of 20m or less are recommended.
· Extension cables must be a screened `Twisted Pair’. A screened twisted pair within a CAT6 computer network cable may be used.
NOTE: Twisted pairs within a CAT cable are indicated by their matching colours. Do NOT use conductors of different colours, to extend a cable; interference may be induced. If extending more than one CT, use a different colour pair for each CT.

Configure Load Balancing Configuration of the load balancing system is performed using the Smart Application as part of the online configuration process. If you (the installer) are not configuring load balancing, make sure the rating of the property main fuse/circuit breaker is written on the rear cover of this manual so that load balancing can be set up by the user.
The main fuse or circuit breaker in the property’s consumer unit should be labelled to state the maximum load. The load balancing system must be set to the same figure (or lower) than that of the main fuse or circuit breaker.
· Do NOT set load balancing above the maximum point. Load balancing will not initiate and all power to the property will be lost if the maximum point is reached.
NOTE: Load Balancing only limits the power available to the charger. It may still be possible to exceed the maximum permitted load of the property if too many appliances are used at the same time.

ECO Mode
The ECO mode can be selected if the user wants to charge only by solar power. It’s recommended that the solar power has an output current above 6A when selects this mode.
· If solar power is not connected to the system, do not choose ECO mode for charging.

1. A Current Transformer (CT) device must be connected between the solar system and the charger to monitor and control to supply of power to the charger from the solar system.

2. If the CT detects that the current of solar power generation is above 6A, the vehicle is charged according to the solar power generation current, and the max charging current does not exceed the max output current of the charger.

Figure 31 ECO Mode Selected

3. If the CT detects that the current of solar power generation drops under 6A, the charger will keep charging at the minimum charging current 6A to avoid car dormancy. The deficiency will be provided by the power grid.
4. Under ECO mode (selected with a tick), if turned ON, charging will start when the vehicle is connected to the charger. If turned OFF, charging will not start until the ENABLE button on the home is tapped.
NOTES:
· Under Plug and Charge or Schedule Mode, if the CT detects the current from solar power generation, the solar power output will work as a supplement. The charger will perform the charging under the max set current by using a combination of power from the grid and power from the solar system.
· CT connections used with a solar system are only possible with single-phase models of the charger. Three-phase models already use all the available connections.

They are not designed to fully protect against water ingress.

Commercial businesses with EV chargepoints should have a Site Maintenance Plan that considers the type, frequency and intensity of use of the equipment on site, and which schedules maintenance as appropriate to keep the equipment in good working order. EV charging equipment should be included in the electrical element of the site maintenance plan and must be performed by an appropriately qualified electrical engineer in accordance with applicable regulations for the region of use. A typical maintenance (inspection and testing) schedule is provided on the next page. This schedule alternates on a quarterly basis between a shorter and longer series of steps but the frequency of which this work is performed must be determined in line with the operator’s Site Maintenance Plan.
· Failure to properly maintain the chargepoint will invalidate the warranty.
About Software Updates
Software updates can be required for many different reasons such as enhancing security, to provide compatibility with new models of electric vehicle, or to meet new regulatory requirements. After an update you may not notice any significant difference in the behaviour of the chargepoint but updating is recommended to help ensure the equipment continues to work as intended for as long as possible. If/when software updates for the chargepoint are released, you will be offered the update via the management application. If you accept the update, the new software will be downloaded in the background and will not normally affect charging activity. When the software has fully downloaded to the chargepoint it will be installed to the systems that need it.
1. The LED Status Indicator will illuminate RED to indicate that the charger cannot be used.
2. The chargepoint will shut down then restart and the software will begin the update. While the update is in progress the chargepoint cannot be used.
3. The LED Status Indicator will illuminate AMBER/YELLOW for up to 5 minutes or so, (depending on the size of the update) until the update is complete.
4. If the chargepoint has more than one charging socket or cable, the last step will be repeated for each of the remaining sockets/cables.
5. When the LED status indicator for all sockets/cables flashes BLUE, the chargepoint is ready for use again.
NOTE: As with a phone or computer, updates of the chargepoint software needs a strong stable connection.
Updates to the QUBEV phone app may be made available from time to time. Your phone app store may alert you to the availability of updates. If charge point functionality changes unexpectedly, check the app store for the availability of an update that may have been issued to resolve the issue.
