Current Limit Logic by PowerPort

This section gives an explanation not needed for a standard install, but helpful to understand
under special situations.
Any EVSE, by cross-industry standards, must signal to the EV the maximum charging
current the EV can draw. The EV is then responsible for limiting current.
In PowerPort, the maximum current as manufactured is a fixed, built-in number, set during
manufacturing. (This is determined by component ratings and corresponds to the last
number in the SKU, for example, 80 Amps for a SKU ending with "-A080". With the switch in
its initial setting of "F", the factory-set maximum current is used. If the field electrician needs
to change this maximum, for example, if the branch circuit rating is too small or if EV cable
is replaced with a lower-amp cable, the electrician can alter the built-in maximum by just
turning the rotary switch per the above section "Set Dial Position", thereby also overriding
the factory setting. Additionally, if the EVSE is being used for grid services, a Nuvve-trained
EVSE Technician can be called to field inspect and add or change maximum current.
The EVSE Technician setting, if added, overrides both the rotary switch setting and the
manufacturer's built-in setting.

PHYSICAL MOUNTING

Wall mounting

Secure the case back of the electric vehicle charging station to the wall in the desired
location. IEC standards for charging stations require that the cord hanger, or the receptacle,
must be located at a height between 0.4 m and 1.5 m above ground level. In environments
with flammable vapor, such as automotive garages, North American standards require
mounting the EVSE at least 460 mm (18 inches) above the floor.
Using a fastener appropriate for the mounting surface, attach the case back through the
top middle mounting hole only. Level the back panel, then secure through the remaining
mounting holes.

Pedestal mount

A separate accessory kit may be ordered for mounting the PowerPort in a location without a
wall surface. Please contact Nuvve sales for more information about this option.
