Where technically possible and legally permissi-
ble, the electric installation must be dimensioned
in such a way that the maximum nominal power
of the electrical socket used is available for
charging the vehicle.
–
Before installation, check that the necessary
power for charging a vehicle can be continuously
provided with the currently available from the
domestic installation. If necessary, protect the
domestic installation with an energy manage-
ment system.
–
The charger should preferably be operated in
earthed mains supply systems. The protective
conductor must be properly installed.

If you are unsure about the electrical domestic
installation, contact a qualified electrician. Por-
sche recommends that you use a certified Por-

In order to make full use of the charger and to
ensure fast vehicle charging, use either NEMA
electrical sockets with the highest possible cur-
rent rating appropriate for the power plug or in-
dustrial electrical outlets to IEC 60309.
–
When charging the high-voltage battery via the
domestic/industrial electrical outlet, the electri-
cal installation may be loaded to its maximum
capacity. Porsche recommends that you have
electrical installations used for charging checked
regularly by a qualified electrician. Ask a qualified
electrician which inspection intervals are appro-
priate for your installation. Porsche recommends
that you use a certified Porsche service partner.

On delivery, the charging current is automatically
limited to prevent overheating of the electrical
installation. Have a qualified electrician put the
charger into operation and set the charging cur-
rent limit as required for the domestic installa-
tion.
