SET DIP SWITCHES WITH CURRENT TRANSFER (CT) COIL
INSTALLED
The current transfer (CT) coil is a current sensor for Dynamic Power
Management. To use the dynamic power management function, a
sensor must be installed downstream of the electricity meter. Based
on the current measured by the sensor, the SEV455 calculates the
building’s energy requirements and modulates the charging current of
the electric vehicle in order to prevent blackouts.
1. The current sensor must be attached to the main cable coming from
the building’s electricity meter and connected to the SEV455 EV
charger. Use the CT coil supplied in the box. Ensure the CT coil is
installed with the arrow on the CT coil pointing to the main box.
2. Installation of the CT coil must be completed by a licensed
electrician.
3. The CT coil’s cables should enter the SEV455 EV charger through
a cable gland at the bottom of the unit. Remove one of the two
rubber caps within the cable gland and pass the cable through the
hole.
4. The two unsheathed cables are then connected to terminals 1
and 2 and the shielded cable should be connected to terminal 3.
Then connect the cable to the J9 connector in the charger. Once
the electrical connection has been completed, the current can be
adjusted.
5. To prolong the CT’s cable, use at least 2 mm x 0.5 mm2 shielded
cable or a CAT5e SF/UTP cable.
