3. ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTING
3.1 Safety Instructions
Read these instructions carefully before installing the
charging station. Alfen ICU B.V. is not liable for any
consequential damage caused by failure to follow the
instructions in this manual.
REMARK
The installation needs to be performed by a qualified
electrician who has read this manual and will execute the
installation in accordance with the IEC 60364 (Electrical
Installations for Buildings) standard. Failure to do so many
lead to injury or cause electical health and safety risks.
REMARK
Work on the charging station may not be carried out if the
atmospheric humidity exceeds 95%.
REMARK
A charging station must always be installed on a power
circuit intended for that purpose.
DANGER!
Installing the station incorrectly may result in fatal injury!
When working with electricity, failure to comply with
relevant regulations can lead to dangerous and life-
threatening situations.
DANGER!
The charging station contains electrical components that
still contain a charge after being disconnected from the
system. Always wait 10 seconds after disconnecting
before beginning to work.
DANGER!
The electrical system must be disconnected from every
power source before performing any installation or
maintenance work!
3.2 Assembly and installation requirements
REMARK
Refer to paragraph 2.7 for the safety options and neces-
sary cable diameters for a safe connection.
Ensure that the following requirements for installing the
Eve Single have been met:
• The cable trajectory from the main distributor to the Eve
Single must be secured against short-circuiting and
overcurrent with:
- a B- or C-type circuit breaker (or other, in accordance
with local standards and regulations), or
- gG-type fuses (or other, in accordance with local
standards and regulations).
• The cable trajectory must be equipped with 30-mA fault
current protection with a type A or B earth leakage
circuit breaker (type A recommended). The earth leakage
circuit breaker must be protected against the maximum
current the charging station can process (20A or 40A)
• The cable trajectory and the charging station are part of
a TN-S system; the equipment must be earthed at the
main distributor or with an earth pin (TT). An energy grid
without a neutral conductor is not supported.
• The cable trajectory must be installed in accordance
with the usual local professional standards.
REMARK
Local conditions may influence the installation
requirements.
REMARK
The installation and cables should be installed to match
the maximum charging current to the input of the charging
station. This should assume continual load. The cable
diameters stated in this manual are indicative. The installer
is always responsible for choosing the right cable diameter
and complying with the relevant standards and legislation.
When selecting a location to install the Eve, the following
criteria must be taken into account:
• Never install in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
• Never install in areas prone to flooding without imple-
menting compensatory measures.
• Always fully comply with local technical requirements
and safety regulations.
• An on-site connection is created that complies with the
specifications in paragraphs 2..7
• The installation site must have a levelled and solid
foundation.
• Maximum atmospheric humidity of 95%.
• Ambient temperature of -25 °C - 40 °C.
• A temperature difference within 24 hours < 35 °C.
• The recommended installation height is 80 - 120 cm
