to supply power to EVs.
EVSE -
Residual Current Monitoring and means the monitoring of
residual currents in electrical systems.
A residual current device monitors your wiring installation
permanently to detect any leaking current.
RCD -
Socket type which prevents inserting charging cable, while
charging station is not activated.
Shutter Socket -
Also known as the Mennekes, it is a type of connectors that
is used to charge Electric Vehicles in Europe.
IEC 62196 -
Europlug (CEE 7/16) and CEE 7/17. Commonly found
across Europe for 230V appliance.
Schuko -
Type A RCDs detect residual sinusoidal alternating currents.
Type A RCDs are suitable for general use and cover most of
the applications in practice.
Typa A RCD -
Type B RCD are intended to be used for loads with three-
phase rectifier, such as variable speed drives, PV system,
EV charging station and medical equipment.
Typa B RCD -

1.7 Moving, Transporting and Storage
instructions
It is recommended to store charging station indoors and in a
non humid environment, keeping it in its original packaging
until it is ready to be installed. Storage temperature should be
between –30 °C and +60 °C

PREPARATION

11
2.1 Site Selection
Selecting a site for HomeBox Slim installation will likely require con-
sideration of a combination of factors. While every site is unique and
every HomeBox Slim host has priorities for installation. Some of the
most common design elements to look for:
Power Rating of Charging Station
Available Parking Space
Proximity to Power Distribution Box
Available Network Communications
Visibility of the Charger
Difficulty of Installation
Pedestrian Trip Hazard
Integration to Charging Platforms

12
Power Rating of Charging Station - Connecting the Charging
station to a power source will require evaluation of existing
electrical capacity. Sometimes greater power charging stations
are unnecessary for the selected location. Such as: workplac-
es, where people tend to stay the whole workday and bigger
power charging station will not be beneficial. When choosing
between charging station, power considers two parts: the elec-
trical system at the location of the EVSE installation, and elec-
trical cabinets, panels, and circuitry will need to accommodate
the anticipated additional load.
Proximity to Power Distribution Box - Installing the
Charging station close to the required power source reduces
the need for cutting, trenching, and drilling to add new
conduits to reach the EVSE. Additionally, the cost of
installation can be reduced if the existing conduit has
adequate capacity for EVSE
Available Parking Space - In addition to standard parking
space considerations, make sure to accommodate extra
space for charging station
Difficulty of Installation - Consider most easiest approach
for installation. Select such location, where least labor would
be necessary for installation.
Visibility of the Charger - Location of installation should be
considered with visibility of charger in mind.
Pedestrian Trip Hazard - Charging station and charging ca-
bles should not interfere with pedestrians routes and cause to
be a tripping hazard

13
Available Network Communications - Charging stations
are much more with internet communication: mobile phone
apps, payment solutions, charging reservations - all these
features are available with internet connectivity. When
choosing a location for the charging station: make sure there
are possibilities to share a network with charging station.
Chargers usually accept all the most popular communication
types: Wi-Fi, LAN, or GSM/4G.
Integration to Charging Platforms - The most charging sta-
tions have integrated payment solutions. Whether in a resi-
dential or public areas, the charging station will need to com-
municate with the back-end system in order to provide a pay-
ment gateway. We recommend using Elios platform for full us-
er satisfaction
.

14
2.2 Electrical Requirements
Make sure to follow these electrical installation requirements.
Failure to do so may cause equipment damage or personal
injuries
This Charging station was designed to work with TNC-S; TNS
or TT Power supply systems.
Make sure grounding resistance is no greater than 10 Ω
Do NOT install charging station with TNC or IT power supply
systems.

15
2.3 Wiring Recommendations
Recommended calculated values for HomeBox Slim charging
station wires: (When calculated cable length Max: 50 meters;
Power factor (cosφ): 0,95; voltage drop (%): 7%; Cabling
method: Four single core copper wire in the pipe (three-
phase)):
Total Charger Power
(kW)
Amperage per Phase (A) Recommended cross-
section (mm2)
3,7 kW 16 A 3 x 2,5 mm2
7,4 kW 32 A 3 x 6 mm2
11 kW 16 A 5 x 2,5 mm2
22 kW 32 A 5 x 6 mm2
Keep in mind that these values are only recommendations,
each installation is different and cable cross-section each
time should be calculated individually.
Warning: failure to select the correct cable cross-section may
cause equipment damage or electrical fire.
When using TNS and TNC-S systems, it is recommended to
use 5 single-core copper wires. When using TT system with
separate grounding, make sure that the grounding cable cross-
section matches the power supply cable cross-section.
The absolute maximum cable cross-section must be no
greater than 6 mm2. The thicker cable will not fit the cable
terminals inside the charging station.
