CONNECTION
WARNING: UNDESIRABLE HEAT GENERATION OR FIRE DUE TO INADEQUATE FUSING
The internal fuses are designed to offer dual protection only for the device itself. The system installer and plant opera-
tor are responsible for the necessary line protection. The relay output control signal is not fused within the device. .
The 16A/32A relay contactor outputs are to be fused externally by the plant constructor. Without appropriate pro-
tection of the relay outputs, overloading can cause undesirable heat generation or even fire.
WARNING: VIA THE PILOT SIGNAL, THE VIRIDIAN EV EPC 2.0 CHARGING CONTROLLER SPECIFIES THE MAXI-
MUM CHARGING CURRENT THAT CAN BE CALLED UP BY THE VEHICLE.
This specified current must be consistent with the line protection configured for the charging device and the rest of
the plant configuration. Failure to observe this notice can result in injury to persons or property damage
WARNING: THE CONDUCTOR CROSS
-
SECTIONS MUST BE DESIGNED CORRESPONDING TO A
STANDARD
-
COMPLIANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION.
The cables that are to be connected must be designed according to the respective type of circuit. Failure to observe this notice
can result in injury to persons or property damage.
Depending on the device version the Viridian EV EPC charging controller is connected to the EVSE in the following
methods:
6.1 CONNECTING TERMINALS & TERMINAL ASSIGNMENT
TETHERED CABLE
“
Tethered
”
means that the charging cable is permanently connected to the EVSE.. The RCBO should be rated at the maxi-
mum current ( 16A/ 32A ) set via the DIP switch ( See Configuration )
FREE CABLE / SOCKET VERSION
“
Free
”
means that the charging cable is not permanently connected and that the user is expected to provide their own.
The EPC 2.0 will energize the 16A or 32A Relay Contactor as selected during installation
NOTICE
