  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction Introduction Thank you for choosing zappi . Of course, we think you have made an excellent choice and are sure you will be very happy with the features, benefits and quality of this myenergi product. These instructions will help you to familiarise yourself with the...
  • Page 5: Overview

    Microgeneration systems such as Solar PV and small wind turbines are at their most efficient when the generated energy is consumed on-site rather than exporting it to the grid. This is what we call 'self-consumption'. zappi is a Mode 3 charging station, compatible with all electric vehicles that comply with SAE J1772, EN62196 and EN61851 plug-in electric vehicle standards.

    Operation Status Screens EV Disconnected The EV is not connected to zappi In this example the last charging session delivered 20.8kWh of energy to the EV and 80% of that energy came from the solar panels. Waiting for Surplus... is waiting for sufficient surplus power from the microgeneration zappi system.
  • Page 11: Charging Modes

    Operation Charging Modes zappi has three different charging modes which can be selected simply by pressing the button when the main screen is showing. The charge mode can be changed before or during a charge. FAST ECO+ Regardless of the charge mode used, all of the surplus electricity is used but...
  • Page 12: Manual Boost

    The Manual Boost function can only be used when charging in ECO or ECO+ mode. When boosting, the charge rate is set to maximum (just like FAST mode), until a set amount of energy has been stored in the EV's battery. After which, zappi will revert back to ECO or ECO+ mode.
  • Page 13: Smart Boost

    ECO+ mode. At sunset there was only 10kWh of charge accumulated. However, because you activated Smart Boost, and set the time you needed to leave for work, zappi automatically boosted the charge in the night to top up the battery to the required 15kWh by 7am.
  • Page 14: Boost Timer

    Boost Timer When using ECO or ECO+ charge modes, zappi can be programmed to 'boost' the current charge at certain times. When boosting, the charge rate is set to maximum (just like FAST mode), regardless of the amount of available surplus power. This means that power may be drawn from the mains grid supply during boost times.
  • Page 15: Lock Function

    Lock Function zappi can be locked from unauthorised operation. The Lock Function requires a pin number to be entered before the unit can be operated. The lock can be set to be active only when the EV is plugged in or only when unplugged, it can also be set to be always active.

  • Page 19: Configuration

    Supply Grid - Phase The Phase setting is only used on 3-phase systems. It should be set to match the phase number that the zappi is wired to so that the power measurements are correct and that zappi responds to the correct phase when using the harvi wireless sensor.
  • Page 20: Linking Devices

    By linking more devices, you can use more of your own energy or have more control and visibility. Devices available now or soon to be available are: zappi – An eco-smart electric vehicle charge point that can use surplus power to charge the car.
  • Page 21 The priority of each, load controlling linked device, can be set from any device with a display. This enables control of how the surplus energy is shared between them. The example below shows one eddi device, two zappi devices and one harvi on the same 'network'.

  • Page 25: Supply Connection

    Installation Supply Connection zappi device should be connected to a single-phase 230V or 240V nominal AC supply. The supply should be from a dedicated 32A or 40A circuit breaker. zappi features and integral 30mA Type-A RCD, therefore an RCD protected supply is not required unless local regulations state otherwise.

  • Page 29: Esense Input (Economy Tariff)

    Installation eSense Input (economy tariff) zappi has an input which can be used to sense the availability of economy tariff electricity, this can be used to automatically boost the charge when in ECO or ECO+ charging modes. The eSENSE input is electrically isolated and effectively draws no current so the cable size is not important. An AC voltage...
