Summary:
The communication to an energy meter that is connected at the
household mains allows the Wallbox to regulate the charging power of
the car depending on the household appliances consumption and the
remaining power available.
Installation and User Guide.

4
The charger must be installed following the respective Installation
Guide, that is delivered with the charger.
Only energy meters that are delivered by Wallbox are compatible
with this feature.
Only qualified people are allowed to perform the installation as it is
described in this document.
Before the installation of Power Boost, the Wallbox must be
powered o and its cover removed. After, the Wallbox must be
properly closed, as defined in its Installation Guide.
1. Important Notes

Provided by Wallbox:
Commander, Copper or Pulsar Plus Wallbox charger
Energy Meter
Additionally Required:
Cable between Wallbox and Energy Meter (we recommend an STP
Class 5E, 2 pair. The length depends on the customer-setup, while a
maximum of 500 m can be installed).

Fig. 1: Schematic location of the
Wallbox meter
As shown in Fig. 1, the energy meter
must be located after the utility meter
(labled as “Wallbox Meter”) and before
the split of power for the house.
Install the energy meter to the mains
according to its Installation Guide.
3. Location of the Energy Meter

After the energy meter has been installed according to its Installation
Guide on the correct positioning, it must be connected to the Wallbox.
The Annex “A” describes the cabling setup to the currently supported
energy meters.
4. Cabling of the Energy Meter
Please check that your charger runs on the latest software. You can
check this by connecting to it with the Wallbox App and review in the
settings the software version.
See the Wallbox’s User Guide for more information.

Max. current per phase: this value is the rated current of the main circuit
breaker (MCB) of your electrical installation. This value determines
the maximum current your installation can withstand. This value can
usually be found marked on the MCB enclosure. For example, a MCB
with rated current of 20 A will usually have the text “C20” or “20A”
marked on it.
Warning: contact your installer in case of doubt about the rated
current of the MCB installed in your property. Only values of Max.
current per phase greater than 6 A are accepted for a correct
performance of the Power Boost functionallity.
6. Definition of “Max. current per phase”

6. Definition of “Max. current per phase”
You can configure Power Boost via the
Wallbox App.
Log-in to the Wallbox App, approach
the charger, select the charger and wait
until the synchronization has finished.
Then select the “Power Boost” box inside
the settings menu for configuring the
parameter as described in Chapter 6.
If your charger has been already
connected to the Internet, you can
perform the configuration via the App
remotely.

Power Boost is limiting the charging current. The current
available for charging the car is lower than the maximum power
set by the user.
In queue by Power Boost. The available power is not enough for
charging the EV (lower than 6 A).

In the event that the supply scheme does not include a neutral line
connection and/or the line-to-line voltage is below 260V, please connect
the Carlo Gavazzi EM112 energy meter as shown in Fig. A1.2:
Fig. A1.1 shows the cabling
between the energy meter and
the Wallbox. Please mind the
required short-circuit between
the pins T and A- of the energy
meter.

Annex A.2
Temco SPM1-100-AC
The energy meter Temco SPM1-100-AC is used for a 1-phase installation
with up to 100 A.
The Temco power meter needs to be clipped to the mains power
cable (schematic location shown in Fig. 1), with the current flowing
in the direction as shown in Fig A2.1.
Only the phase-cable must be drawn through the clamp. The neutral-
cable must not be drawn through.
