optional adapter
EV-TEST100
capable of simulating the presence of an electric vehicle,
measuring the output voltage signals and simulate fault conditions in accordance with the
reference IEC/EN61851-1 and IEC/EN60364-7-722 guidelines.
CAUTION
The EVSE test is only available for instruments of Gx family with
measurement category CAT IV 300V correspondent to the list
indicated in the Table 1
The EVSE test is not possible for IT systems
1. Select the options “TN, TT or “IT”, “25 or 50V”, “50Hz or
60Hz” and the reference voltage in the general settings
of the instrument (see § 5.1.4). Touch the
icon.
The screen to the side appears on the display.
Touch the lower icon in order to set the parameter of
EVSE system under test. The following screen appears
2.
Move the reference of the left sliding bar by selecting
one of the followed parameters
:
test on Single phase EVSE system
test on Three phase EVSE system
Move the reference of the central sliding bar by
selecting one of the followed parameters
:
EVSE system in unventilated environment
EVSE system in ventilated environment
Move the reference of the right sliding bar by selecting
the maximum rated output current of the EVSE system
as defined by the reference standard among the
options:
13A, 20A, 32A and 63A
Confirm the choice by going back to the initial
measurement screen
3.
Connect the terminals L1, PE and N of the optional EV-TEST100 adapter respectively
to the inputs
B1
,
B3
and
B4
of the instrument and connect the adapter to the
In1
input
of the instrument via cable C100EV supplied with the same adapter as shown in the
Fig. 38
4.
Check the zero values of the voltages between the terminals L-N, L-PE and N-PE to
indicate the correct situation on the EVSE system
