How to test the kWh meter on EVBox charging station
1. Plug the charging cable into the EVBox Dual Socket Test Box
in its designated socket (Type 1 or Type 2).
2. Plug any device into the Schuko socket (e.g. an electric
heater) and turn it on. Note: The maximum current rating of
the device must not exceed 10 A.
3. Set the switch button to “Position C” for the appropriate
socket type (Type 1 or Type 2).
4. Start the charging session by holding an RFID card in front of
the charging station’s RFID reader. Alternatively, you can use
any other available authorization method to start a charging
transaction.
5. The green LED ring (HMI) will begin ashing; you will hear
one beep sound.
6. At this point, the LED ring will turn yellow and then
immediately to blue, indicating that the charging session has
started. You will see the green socket indicator light for the
chosen socket type (Type 1 or Type 2) light up, indicating that
its corresponding socket is energized.
7. Some charging stations allow you to monitor the kWh meter
readings during a charging session. This will enable you to
monitor the actual energy consumption.
8. After a while, stop the charging session by holding the same
RFID card in front of the charging station’s RFID reader, or by
using the same alternate authorization mode from step 4 to
stop the charging transaction.
9. The LED ring will turn green again or switch off completely
(depending on the settings).
10. Check that the charging session is recorded in the online
portal and that the energy consumption is shown.
