2. SAFETY
easyWallbox is only intended for fixed mounting. It can be installed and used
to charge electric vehicles in areas with restricted access, both indoor and
outdoor (e.g. private housing, private parking areas or similar places), in
compliance with chapter 4 indications and local regulations.
The device can be used exclusively to charge full-electric or hybrid
vehicles compatible with Type 2 connectors, as in IEC 62196-2; it is not
compliant with other vehicles or devices.
The standard IEC 61851-1:2017, paragraph 6.2.2 prescribes as nominal current
and nominal voltage for Mode 2 respectively 32 A and 250 V in single-phase.
Hence easyWallbox power can be increased up to 7.4 kW (32 A) in compliance
with Mode 2 current and voltage limits, by using an adequate cable and
industrial connector suitable for 32 A and compliant with IEC 60309-2.
Some countries apply regulations that require supplementary protection from
the risk of electrocution. In any case, the instructions for use in the manual
and any additional documentation must be read before using easyWallbox.
easyWallbox should be connected to a power supply protected by an RCD and
an overcurrent protective device. The RCD should have a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30 mA, be at least type A, and should comply
with one of the following standards: IEC 61008-1, IEC 61009-1, IEC 60947-2 and
IEC 62423. RCDs should disconnect all live conductors. The overcurrent
protective devices should comply with IEC 60947-2, IEC 60947-6-2, IEC 61009-1
or the relevant parts of IEC 60898 series or IEC 60269 series.
In the event of a short circuit, the value of I2t at the vehicle connector (Case C)
of the charging station should not exceed 80 000 A2s. easyWallbox can be
connected to TT, TN and IT types of earthing systems. For circuits in IT systems
that are intended to power electric vehicles, for example through an isolation
transformer or a battery system, an insulation control device (IMD) compliant
with CEI EN 61557-8 must be provided. In a TN system, a circuit supplying a
connecting point should not include a PEN conductor.
All the instructions in this Mode 2 with Power Upgrade Manual are only
intended to be carried out by qualified personnel with the abilities
described in 1.3, from this point ‘Installers in Power Upgrade mode’.
