External Equipment Required (RCD Protection) #
We recommend a RCBO (Residual Current operated circuit Breaker with integral Overcurrent protection) or RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) + Circuit Breaker is installed.
A Type A RCBO with earth leakage protection of 30mA and 40A current rating must be installed separately in the consumer unit by the installer.
Specification for RCBO, RCCB + Circuit Breaker
Device Built-in Protection #
PEN Fault Protection
The charge point is equipped with PEN Fault Protection and an automatic disconnection system which satisfies the requirements of BS7671:2018 Amendment 2:2022 722.411.4.1 (iv) the 18th Edition IET Wiring Regulations.
Residual DC Device
The charge point is equipped with 6mA DC Current Leakage Protection function which conducts an automated test for the 6mA DC (IEC 62955).
Type A + 6mA DC Leakage Current Protection
RCD Type A and appropriate equipment ensure disconnection of the power supply in case of DC fault current above 6 mA.
CAUTION: Certified RCBO should be installed upstream close to the charging station. All protection devices must comply with the appropriate technical specification according to local regulations.
Single Phase #
Reference Wiring Cable #
We recommend using an install cable that carries: Live, Neutral, Earth & Cat 5e cabling to future proof Single Phase installs. 2 wires from Cat 5e cable can be used to extend the CT clamp up to 50m.
