BUILDING THE EVSE
REQUIRED PARTS
The required parts will depend on the type of EVSE to be built.
For EVSE with fixed cable the following is required:
housing with DIN rail;
contactor with appropriate current rating;
RARON EV Charge Controller;
Fixed cable with Type 2 or Type 1 plug (depending on the
EV);
For EVSE with Type 2 socket you will require:
housing with DIN rail;
contactor with appropriate current rating;
RARON EV Charge Controller;
Type 2 socket, with locking solenoid or motor, if desired.
The use of RCBO (Residual Current Breaker with Overcurrent) is
advised in the EVSE or on the distribution board for power supply
INPUT connection.
When using a fixed charging cable a resistor R
pp
between PP and PE
on the plug is required. Otherwise the charge rate will be limited to
13A. The values are: 100 Ω = 63 A, 220 Ω = 32 A and 680 Ω = 16 A.
