Intended use
This product is intended for optimizing the power consumption by performing an automatic load balancing between the Easee Charging Robot(s) and the building. It avoids overload and power interruption while charging the electric vehicle (EV).
The product needs to be paired with a Charging Robot and connected to a compatible smart meter with the cable provided. In order for the Equalizer to work, the smart meter’s HAN port needs to be activated. The product may only be operated with the approved operating parameters and under the specified environmental conditions (see pages 5 and 9).
Uses other than those specified here are not permitted.

Pairing
Before you start: make sure your Easee charger is connected to the same
WiFi as you want the Equalizer to connect to. The Equalizer does not need to
be connected to a power source during this step.
Hold the front side of the Equalizer over the light strip of the Easee charger and move it slowly downwards. When the charger lights green, the pairing is done!
Fuse box
Connecting
Plug the Equalizer into a HAN port
- Plug the Equalizer into a HAN port with the provided cable. After around 30 seconds, it should start flashing in white while connecting to your WiFi. Once connected, it is automatically added to the Easee app!
- Place the magnetic backside of the Equalizer directly on a metallic surface. If a metallic surface is not available, fix the metallic disc with a screw on the wall and then snap the Equalizer to it.
NOTICE! For better communication with the Easee charger, place the
Equalizer outside of the fuse cabinet. When outdoors, it should be protected
from the weather, e.g. inside the fuse box (see page 7).
In most cases the HAN port will be inactive – please contact your utility company to open it for 3rd party use.
What do the LED colors mean?
White, fast flashing – Booting
White, breathing every 10s – Normal operation
Red / white, switching – No WiFi added 2
Red/blue, switching – No internet connection
Red, flashing – No data from power meter 1
Red, breathing every 10s – Error 3
Touch the Easee logo in the middle to check power consumption:
Blue, fast flashing – High power consumption Blue, slow flashing – Low power consumption Count the flashes for a percentage – 1 flash (10%), 2 flashes (20%), up to 10 flashes (100%)
Hold the Easee logo for 3 seconds to check connectivity. You will see 2
flashes:
1st flash – Easee Link RF status
2nd flash – WiFi status
Green – Connected
Red – Not connected
Practical details
Charge faster
The Equalizer makes it possible to charge smarter, safer, and faster if the
installation is scaled accordingly. To enable its true potential, the rated
value of the charger’s circuit fuse should be as high as possible compared to
the main fuse. Even in 1-phase setups, we recommend using a 3-phase cable to
future-proof the installation.
Protection
The Equalizer is IP40. This means it has no protection against water. If
placed outside the house, it must be installed inside a cabinet protected from
the weather.
Product life cycle
This product requires no maintenance. If it needs to be repaired, please
contact your Easee supplier.
