• Drill
• Multimeter
• Laser/spirit level
• Wire stripper for cabling
• Mobile phone, tablet or computer
• Wi-Fi analyzer app to ensure sufficient Wi-Fi strength at the
installation location
• LTE Network analyzer app
4.2 Materials provided by installer

4.4.1 Short circuit safety - internal MCB installation
When an MCB is installed internally, inside of Charge Amps Dawn,
an MCB with following specifications is required:
• ABB: S203-C32
Article nr: 2CDS253001R0324
This MCB can be purchased as a part included in the Charge
Amps Installation Kit (described in chapter 3.2), or bought
separately.
Instructions for how to reset the MCB when it is placed inside of
Charge Amps Dawn can be found in Charge Amps Dawn User
Manual.
4.4.2 Short circuit safety - external MCB installation
When an MCB is installed externally, outside of Charge Amps
Dawn, an MCB with following specifications is required:
• Up to 32 A MCB, curve B or C, with Energy Class 3.
4.4.3 Residual current safety
Charge Amps Dawn has a built-in RCD functionality:
• Built-in RCD Type-B complying with IEC 60947-2.
AC: 30mA, DC: 6mA.
Instructions for how to test and reset the built-in RCD can be
found in Charge Amps Dawn User Manual.

English
4.5 Internet access
N.B. If Wi-Fi is configured, it will be prioritized over LTE.
Both Wi-Fi connection and LTE connection is available for Charge
Amps Dawn. Charge Amps Dawn IEEE 802.1b/g/n Wi-Fi has a
maximal speed of ~65 Mbps during ideal conditions and Charge
Amps LTE-M CAT-M1 eMTC support up to ~500 kbps.
4.5.1 Wi-Fi connection
Wi-Fi connection is available and the placement of Charge Amps
Dawn is key to solid Wi-Fi connectivity. Before installing Charge
Amps Dawn:
• Give the network a pre-test with a Wi-Fi analyzer app to
measure the network strength. Sufficient network strength
should be -65 dBm
• Small adjustments of the location may have significant effect on
the signal.
• If you can’t find a good location for Charge Amps Dawn, you
might need to use a Wi-Fi extender to extend the range.

18
English
4.5.2 LTE connection
LTE-M, i.e. enhanced machine-type communication (eMTC) low
power wide area (LPWA), connection is available and requires
public land mobile network (PLMN) coverage with reliable signal
strength. The first time the Charge Amps Dawn attach to the
PLMN it will require some additional time (up to ten minutes) due
to the LTE network attachment procedure. After this, the Charge
Amps Dawn will attach and connect to the network based on
cached PLMN information. Before installing Charge Amps Dawn:
• Give the network a pre-test with a LTE Network analyzer app,
to measure the LTE signal strength. Sufficient network strength
should be better than -108 dBm.
• If you can’t find a good location for Charge Amps Dawn, you
might need to use Wi-Fi with a fixed Internet access line.
