Taking into operation and charging procedure
Your charging station is ready for use immediately after mechanical and electrical in-
stallation have been completed. The
EVSE 563
is equipped with a fixed charging cable
with a type 2 charging connector. This connector has three current-carrying contacts,
a PE-protective earth conductor as well as two sig-
naling contacts (
C
ontrol
P
ilot and
P
roximity
P
ilot),
which ensure a secure connection and therefore the
safe operation of the charging station.
As long as the connector is not locked into place
in the vehicle socket, there will be no feedback re-
sponse via the signaling contacts of the charging
connector: As a result, charging will not be initiated
and the
EVSE 563
will not apply a voltage to the
connector’s current-carrying contacts.
In place of the integrated RCCB the
EVSE 563
model variant has a switch that you
can flick to interrupt the
C
ontrol-
P
ilot signal to the charging socket and thereby prevent
detection of the electric vehicle. To prevent unauthorized access, the switch is located
under the lockable housing cover.
WARNING!
Ensure that your vehicle has internal DC fault current protection: De-
pending on the country where you operate the
eMH1
, charging using
the
EVSE 563
without integrated DC-RCM may only be permitted with
an external, upstream type B RCCB!
Otherwise, all local regulations for
connection to the power supply must be observed.
Safety information for taking the charging station into operation
Before you take your
EVSE 563
charging station into operation, you must
observe the following safety notices:
• Ensure that the
EVSE 563
is connected to the domestic power supply according to
the instructions in this manual and the separately available service guide.
• Ensure that supply cable is separately protected in your domestic power distribu-
tion box by a suitable miniature circuit breaker (MCB, C characteristic).
