Wi-Fi Installation ..........................5 Overview The Amp Guard is a device for measuring current in the power distribution box for use in a load balanced Charge-Amps installation. When power consumption from the power supply approach pre- set levels, the Amp Guard automatically reduces the power available for charging. When Amp Guard is used together with power generating equipment, such as solar cells, the Amp Guard acts as a fully- fledged bidirectional Smart Meter.
Preferably use LAN port for internet connection, Wi-Fi connection is also possible. Normally, no firewall settings need to be modified. As soon as the Amp Guard is powered up and connected to the internet, it will start delivering data. Electrical Installation...

NOTE: It is very important that the sensors are attached to the correct phase and that the sensors are positioned according to the current direction when consuming power. See arrows which shows current direction for Amp Guard Public and Home below: To complete the electrical installation, the installer must configure the load balancer in the Cloud Configuration, see below.
2. Go to cellphone settings > Wi-Fi and choose the WIFI network Amp Guard_***** (* = Specific to Amp Guards serial number) 3. Connect with the password specific for your Amp Guard. 4. From a web browser enter the following address: http://192.168.251.1...
Cloud Configuration The Amp Guard must be set up correctly to be used with a load balanced group. This is done using My Charge Space (as Partner). This should be done by the electrical installer. Import Amp Guard 1. Log in as a partner at http://my.charge.space/partner.

5. Press Save and enable the load balancing group. Max Current Per Phase settings With an Amp Guard installed, a higher total current per phase is allowed, since the load balancer will automatically reduce the charging power if necessary. However, there is always a risk that the Amp Guard stops sending data (network problems, power turned off etc.).
15 A. A suggested setting would be the following: Max Current Per Phase (Standalone): 10 A (allowing for the other applications to be active) Max Current Per Phase (Amp Guard): 25 A (when other applications usage can be measured, the Amp Guard can compensate for it)
