This function allows a group of charging stations to share the available power according to the capacity of the
protection circuit breaker that protects the power supply of the charging stations and the number of charging stations
currently in use. This function has two levels that can be used separately or simultaneously.
“Level 1” is used when multiple charging stations are protected by a single circuit breaker whose capacity is between
20 A and 40 A. If more than one charging station is in use, the power delivered by each charging station will be
reduced equally for all charging station currently in use so as not to trip the circuit breaker.
“Level 2” is used when multiple charging stations are individually protected by a circuit breaker whose capacity is
between 20 A and 40 A and when all these circuit breakers are protected by a main circuit breaker whose capacity is
between 40 A and 400 A.
