INDRA WHITE, 10M General Description This manual describes the method of installation and hardware operation of the Indra’s Range of Smart Chargers, where the charger is a permanently installed electric vehicle charging solution for resistive domestic and commercial loads of at least 6A and up to 32A at 230V,...
General Warnings and Safety • The Indra’s Range of Smart Chargers should only be installed and maintained by a suitably competent electrician who has successfully completed Indra product training. Failure to comply will VOID the product warranty. • The Smart Range is designed for permanent installation and should only be used within the parameters set out in the technical specification and on the product label.
‘Boost’ functionality overrides any smart grid criteria and provides instantaneous charging capability. Charging using Indra Smart chargers can take place at up to 7.4kW, but due to modulation capability (measured by the external CT clamp) this power output level can also be reduced.
O-PEN Fault Detection Indra’s Smart PRO and Smart LUX products have built-in O-PEN protection in the form of Indra’s patented PESTs. This offers multiple options to comply with the PEN fault regulations, including Line to Neutral Voltage monitoring (PEST mode B) and CPC to true earth voltage monitoring (PEST mode A).
A gile. Solar Mode This mode can be selected in the Indra App and can enable the customer to use any excess solar energy (or any other form of micro-generation) to charge their car. The external CT monitors how much energy is being exported from the installation. If the installation is exporting more than 1.4KW, then the charger will offer the car a charge.
A1:2020+A2:2022; section 722.411.4.1. For the purposes of design/installation we have two modes of operation which Indra call A & B. Mode A can be configured with or without a reference pin. The safest installation configuration is mode A with reference electrode.
General Installation Notes WARNING: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD PRESENT A HAZARD The Indra Smart Range must be installed by a qualified electrician who has completed Indra Academy Training. Any servicing or tampering by a non-qualified professional electrician WILL void the warranty.
Pre-Installation Survey Before installing an Indra smart charger, we recommend surveying the installation to ensure that an install can go ahead; and that the charger is appropriate for the customers’ requirements. This survey should include: • Identify the earthing arrangement of the property and the required PEST mode.
Installation Procedure Indra smart chargers are supplied with the general screws and wall fixings that are required to permanently fix them in position. However, it remains the responsibility of the installer to evaluate the suitability of the installation surface and use the appropriate fixing.
Choosing the Charger Location • Select an installation location that ensures future servicing of the Indra Smart charger, where the back plate can be mounted flush to a flat wall and screws can be used to permanently secure the charger in position.
Hanging the charger • Hold the top of the charger just above the wall bracket, tilting the bottom of the charger away from the wall. • Lower the charger onto the two prongs at the top then hinge the charger back flush with the bracket.
Cable Entry - Smart LUX™ The Smart LUX™ is designed with two cable entries in the bottom edge and one in the rear (Identified in blue on Figure 4). • All cable entry points are designed for a 25mm hole. •...
Cable Entry - Smart PRO The Smart PRO is designed with four cable entry points, two in the bottom edge and two in the rear (Identified in blue on Figure 5). • Cable entry point 1 is designed for a 25mm hole. •...
Ensure any tension is removed from the connection by dressing the cable appropriately. Note: Indra recommends the use of bootlace ferrules on class 5 & 6 cables ONLY. Note: Indra recommends using EV Ultra Cable from Doncaster Cables as is contains power and data in the same cable.
Connect Mains Cables - Smart PRO Note: Cut the mains wires with reference to the Wire Cut Length table. • Remove the outer insulation of the cable, leaving 10mm protruding from the gland. • Route the wires as per Figure 7. •...
Connect Mains Cables - Smart PRO Gen 2 Note: Cut the mains wires with reference to the Wire Cut Length table. • Remove the outer insulation of the cable, leaving 10mm protruding from the gland. • Route the wires as per Figure 7. •...
Drive the pin straight into the ground, leaving enough length at its tip to secure the clamping terminal. • Attach the lug clamp terminal and run a length of cable (Indra recommend solar PV cable) back to the charger. •...
Connecting the charger to the Wi-Fi can be carried out after the charger has been sealed and powered up. Note: If installing on Wi-Fi, Indra recommends using the Installer App due to improved user experience and improved range of connectivity.
Routing the USB extension should be executed as per Figures 11 & 12, to ensure the tamper sensor does not become blocked. Wi-Fi Pairing (App) Open the Indra Installer App Follow the on-screen instructions Note: See Pg. 39 for QR Codes to App.
Hardwired Note: Indra recommends the use of hardwired internet back to the customer’s router, as the best option based on reliability. • Route a cable from the customer’s Wi-Fi router back to the charger and use an appropriately sized IP68 gland to enter the bottom of the charger.

This can be done by using a signal analyser. A minimum speed of 4Mbps is required. Indra cannot be held responsible for the intermittent nature of cellular network, nor the lack of signal in the chosen area. Note: Internet signal strength can vary based on usage in the area; provider maintenance;...
This would usually be a junction box near the switchgear of the charger circuit. Note: Indra recommends the use of EV Ultra Cable from Doncaster Cables as it contains power and data combined in one cable.
Testing All tests should be documented on an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC). Continuity of protective conductors In accordance with (IAW) Guidance Note 3 to BS7671:2018+A2:2022 Section 2.6.5. This should be carried out between the live and CPC of the mains cable that will connect to the L & CPC lever connectors of the charger.

• Power the charger up, once the boot up is complete, connect the EVSE tester to the charger. • Change the mode on the EVSE tester to B, the 4 status lights should begin to flash. • Press the boost button on the charger, the primary LED and status LED’s will go blue. •...
Sealing the Unit Once all works have been carried out inside the charger, it can be closed and sealed. • Front cover should be secured to a torque rating of between 2-2.5 N/m with 6x 4x8mm Button Head T20 screws. •...
(pg. 36-37) DynaMO Commissioning: Once you have completed the Indra Academy training, you will receive an email containing access to DynaMO. To begin commissioning, scan the QR code on the left side of the charger and it will take you to the DynaMO login page, then follow the installation procedure as instructed in the DynaMO portal.
Though the likelihood is that the charger will be being updated to FW.11 because 4G wasn’t suitable in the first place. Equipment: Indra 4G Dongle Process: 1. Power off the charger 2. Insert the 4G dongle to the charger (if required, install a USB extension cable as per the installation manual).

Firmware version 11 brings several improvements and features to the Indra Smart Range. Most importantly it is the firmware required to use the Indra Installer App for installations. It is recommended that units are installed on v11or greater for improvements to ease of installation when using the installer app.
To get the Installer App go to the App Store ™ or Google Play Store ™ and search for “Indra Installer App”. Please then install the app from the first result that comes up. Or use the below QR code.
It is also recommended that the installer retains a copy, or evidence of its completion and handover, for their records. A digital version of this form can be found on the Indra website to be emailed to the customer. Also hand the customer the Customer Quick Start Guide. This provides them with support on getting set up on the Indra App.

These lights trace around the full circumference of the front panel and are visible through the ‘grill’ of the charger. The Turbine lights can be turned off via the Indra App at any time via the settings.
What do the LEDs on my charger mean? There are two separate LED indicators on the charger. The Primary LED indicates the charger status, while the four panel LEDs highlight the charger’s current mode. Each of these will illuminate a different colour and will emit a sequence of flashes that indicates the charger’s current state.
