tion by a qualied electrician.
–Where technically possible and legally permissi-
ble, the electric installation must be dimensioned
in such a way that the maximum nominal power
of the electrical socket used is available for
charging the vehicle.
–In order to make full use of the charger and to
ensure fast vehicle charging, use either NEMA
electrical sockets with the highest possible cur-
rent rating appropriate for the power plug or in-
dustrial electrical outlets to IEC 60309.
–When charging the high-voltage battery via the
household/industrial electrical outlet, the elec-
trical installation may be loaded to its maximum
capacity.
