Installation kit

Technical specifications

Planning the installation

Prior to the installation, it is recommended that you consider future charging needs, so that you can easily expand accordingly in the future.
If several Charging Robots are connected to the same circuit, the total current is dynamically distributed between them. The connected Charging Robots communicate wirelessly between each other, ensuring the circuit is not overloaded. The maximum charging current is set during configuration.

For an optimal result

• We always recommend a 3 phase installation if possible, to make it future-proof.
• If possible, use the largest approved cable crosssection (see Technical specifications).
• Consider the installation of Easee Ready backplates if the acquisition of further Charging Robots is planned for the future.
• To avoid overloading the building's main fuse, the Easee Equalizer can be used for dynamic load balancing. The maximum current value can also be set as required during configuration.

Special notes for Easee One

• Easee One is specifically designed to comply with clause 722.411.4.1 of BS 7671:2018 A1 (British Standard). It includes a protection mechanism to completely disconnect the vehicle in case an indication of a broken PEN conductor is detected.
• If the charging infrastructure includes more than one Charging Robot, the Charging Robot that is configured first becomes the master of its circuit.
• If more than 2 units are installed, the master unit should be located in the middle of the installation (if possible) for an optimal Easee Link communication.

Your house, power grid and EV
The Charging Robot automatically adapts to the power grid, the electric car and the capacity of the electrical installation. In the table you can see what charging effect you can expect from your installation and situation. The table is only meant as a guide.

The type of installation as well as cable crosssections must be determined by a qualified electrician in accordance with valid local, regional and national regulations for electrical systems.

¹ Protection limit based on max 80% of the fuse rating can be set in the Installer App.
² Example for 230 V TT / TN-S, deviating values for other grid types.

Padlock
It's possible to lock the electronics with a padlock. This will create an extra layer of security (padlock is not included).

Residual Current Device (RCD)

• A Residual Current Device is integrated in the Charging Robot.
• The RCD will break the current in case a residual current exceeding 6mA DC or 30mA AC is detected.
• Disconnection time is according to EN 61008-1 and IEC 62955.
• The RCD is automatically tested between each charging session or at least every 24h.
• For manual initialization of the RCD-test, please refer to the Installer App.
• The integrated RCD has no influence on the function of external protective devices.
• An external RCD is required when at least one of the below conditions are identified:
  • The installation, including cable, junction boxes etc., includes components with only basic insulation (Class I).
  • Any other electrical equipment apart from Easee One, including lamps and socket outlets, is connected to the circuit.
  • Any other conditions identified by the authorized installer requiring an external RCD.
• The internal RCD is considered to provide the required RCD protection for both AC and DC leakage faults when all the below conditions are fulfilled:
  • The installation, including cable, junction boxes etc, is performed entirely with components providing double or reinforced insulation (Class II).
  • No other electrical equipment apart from Easee One, including lamps and socket outlets, is connected to the circuit.
  • No other conditions identified by the authorized installer requiring an external RCD.

Charging Robot. Opening

1. Bend down the lower part of the rubber cover and insert the two ends of the front cover tool into the two openings at the bottom of the front cover.
2. Pull the tool until the front cover comes loose and remove the cover.
3. Grasp the Type 2 socket and push upwards with good force until the Chargeberry disconnects.

Backplate. Mounting

1. Fix the backplate to a wall or structure with sufficient load-bearing capacity using the 4 wall screws provided in the mounting kit. Use suitable wall plugs for mounting and observe the local regulations for recommended installation height.
   
   The installation wall must cover the entire back of the product. If this is not possible to achieve, it is possible to use the Easee Mount.
   NOTE If you are going to install multiple backplates, now would be a good time to mount them as well.
   

Backplate. Preparing

1. Shorten the sealing plug to fit the cable. The hole should be slightly smaller than the cable to ensure a good seal.
2. Insert the cable through one of the 4 cable entries and secure it to the backplate with the strain relief provided.
3. Close all cable entries that are not in use with the supplied blind plugs.

Wiring

1. Strip each wire, exposing 12 mm of copper on each. If the cable has flexible conductors, then you must use ferrules on stranded wires to make the connection. Use the correct tools to press them.
2. Tighten the screw terminals with a torque of 5 Nm.

NOTES

• When connecting multiple backplates in parallel, each screw terminal serves as a coupling point for adjacent backplates. All backplates must be connected with the same phase sequence. External junction boxes or flat cables can be used if it is more convenient.
• It is recommended to follow the existing colour codes used in the installation. Depending on national standards, the colours of the cables can vary from the illustrations. The illustrations in this manual follow the IEC 60446 standard.
• Before turning the power on, make sure the wires are properly connected and tightened.
• Never connect Earth to both the PE and PEN terminal.
• PME systems are common in the UK marketplace.
  This configuration is unlikely to be found across the EU. Please check with your local network operator if you have any questions.

2. Select one of the two site setups in the Installer App:
   Create new site: If this is a completely new charging site, select "Create new site". Enter the installation details, follow the on-screen instructions and return to this guide afterwards.
   

Update existing site: If this site already has one or more Charging Robots installed or if it has been created by an operator (Easee Charge), select "Update existing site" and search for the site address. On "Site overview", select the circuit that you want the backplate to be part of and select "Add another backplate". Follow the on-screen instructions and return to this guide afterwards.
NOTE
If the charging circuits include more than one Charging Robot, the backplate that is configured first becomes the master unit of the charging infrastructure. To achieve the best communication flow, the centre backplate should be configured first.

Chargeberry. Attaching

Insulation testing must be performed before a Chargeberry is installed in the backplate. Testing the circuit insulation with the Chargeberry installed in the backplate may damage the electronics or impact the reading negatively.

1. Turn on the power. The terminals of the backplates are now electrically live.
2. Remove the PIN code sticker and attach it to the inside of the fuse cabinet, or another safe location for storage.
3. Position the Chargeberry to fit into the slots on the backplate located in the center of the installation.
4. When the Chargeberry is in the track, press it forcefully down until you hear a "CLICK".

Features

1. Touch button: The touch button is used to activate Bluetooth. Bluetooth connection in the app allows for local operation of the charger when no internet is available. Read more about the local interface at: easee.com/support/bt
2. Light strip: The light strip communicates the status of the Charging Robot at all times. (See Charging Robot interface).
3. RFID area: The integrated RFID reader enables access control of the Charging Robot and identification of different users. You can use it to unlock the charger with an Easee Key. Check our knowledge base at support.easee.com for more details on how to add and manage your Easee Keys.
4. Type 2 socket: The Type 2 socket is completely universal and allows you to charge any type of electric vehicle using the appropriate charging cable. Furthermore, it is possible to permanently lock the charging cable, so you do not have to worry about it being stolen.
