  • Page 8: Instrument Overview

    The following list explains the EV charger status codes reported by the MFT-X1 when using the EVX100. Most of these codes will only appear momentarily during a tripping test sequence. For normal operation with the MFT-X1 switched on and the EVX100 connected to a working charger the EV charger will be in state C2.
  • Page 9: Operation

    Operation 4. Operation NOTE : The EVX100 MUST be charged before use else the unit will not operate.This is required as international shipping prevents Li-ion battery operated equipment being shipped with more than 30% charge. Designed for testing Mode 3 AC electric vehicles, the Electric Vehicle Charge-point Adaptor, EVX100, is a compact and portable unit, designed to be fitted directly to the front of the MFT-X1.
  • Page 10: Battery Status And Charging

    Holding down the button on the top of the EVX100 will also show battery status. Charging the EVX100 NOTE : The EVX100 will only charge over an ambient temperature range of 0 ºC to 45 ºC. Charging the EVX100 battery status is performed using a type C USB cable.

    Image loop test on L-PE Should an RCD or RDC trip during the measurement mode, the EV charger will lose power and switch off. The EVX100 will automatically attempt to reset the EV charger by sending the Status sequence: C, B, A, B, C.
  • Page 18: Testing The Rcd/Rdc

    Testing with the EVX Testing the RCD/RDC The EVX100 offers automatic test sequences for RCD and RDC testing. If only a part of the sequence needs to be run, the AUTO sequence can be modified in SETTINGS RCD tab – refer to the full MFT-X1 user manual.
  • Page 19: Specifications

    For measurement specification refer to the MFT-X1 user guide. See megger.com/mft-x1 NOTE : Uses the Megger Confidence Meter to measure the supply source impedance of circuits protected with an RCD rated ≥30 mA when there are only two connections possible. When a neutral is available the three-wire test will provide a quicker, more accurate result.
