Specifications of a typical 350 kW EVSE:
• 500 A DC
• Voltage range: 150 V DC – 920 V DC
• AC/DC converters separated from the charge posts
• Internal power connections made with bus bars
• Liquid-cooled cable between charge post and EV
The DCBM is integrated in the charge post. Figure hereunder gives an example of integration.

Figure 8: DCBM in a typical 350 kW EVSE
The DCBM has to be integrated using bus bars and connections in a hazardous area, usually
separated from low voltage areas. Moreover, the operating temperature of bus bars can exceed
+100 °C while charging at high power.
In such compact and space-limited environment, the specific split construction of the DCBM makes
it easy to integrate, just as other electrotechnical components like power relays, power diodes or
DC link fuses.
