Input Power Cord
It's a short 30cm cord that connects the electronic box with the power socket.
This cord is terminated with an industrial three-phase power plug (3P + N + PE).
The CEE connector can manage up to 32A.
The input power cord carries only power wires, there is no communication
between the electronic box and the power source, so the electronic box cannot
know the maximum current it can get from the socket.
Because the power source is unknown,
the user must select the maximum
allowed current without exceeding the maximum current allowed by the
power source.
An interlocked socket is a socket mechanically connected with an electrical
switch, you cannot turn the switch on without a plug inserted and you cannot
remove the plug if the switch is in the on position. It has 2 important advantages:
– You are sure that no power is applied if there is no plug inserted
– You cannot remove the plug while power is applied
We suggest to install a compatible industrial grade interlocked socket in
every location you wish to recharge your car
.
The normative forbids to use standard adapters
because they are not designed
to manage high currents for long times, it must be plugged directly in any
compatible socket.
Anyway for practical uses we provide some specific current limited adapters that
can manage high currents for long times.
Any power socket used for recharging must be protected with a
suitable over-
current breaker and a residual current breaker
, their installation should be
certified by your electrician. The type of protection is defined by the national
technical regulations.
