Page 7: Introduction
A NACS to Type 1 converter is included. 1.2 EV45–T2 Product Overview The FLIR EV45-T2 is designed to test level 1 or level 2 EV charging stations and AC wall outlets in commercial and residential installations outside the US. -
Page 8: Glossary Of Terms
Introduction 1.4 Glossary of Terms EVSE Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (charging station) Control Pilot (CP) A pulse width modulated (PWM) signal that allows communi- cation between the EV and charging station. The CP informs the EV of the maximum current that can supplied by the charger. -
Page 9: About The Proximity Pilot And Control Pilot Signals
Introduction 1.5 About the Proximity Pilot and Control Pilot Signals The Proximity Pilot (PP) and Control Pilot (CP) signals (on the charging plug) allow electric vehicles and chargers to communicate. The Proximity Pilot informs the charger that a vehicle is, or is not, connected. For Type 1 connectors, the PP detects the EV connection and whether the connection latch is secured. -

Page 19: Battery Power
Battery Power The EV45 is powered by four (4) AA alkaline batteries, housed in the rear compartment. The compartment is secured by two screws at the top of the compartment. See Section 8, Maintenance, for battery replacement instructions. To switch ON the EV45, turn the rotary switch to the RDY (ready) position on the left, if the charger is ventilated. -
Page 20: Operation
Operation 5.1 Preparation for Testing a Commercial Charger When testing a commercial charging station, you’ll need an account with a mobile charging application to activate the charger. Typically the charger will have a printed QR code that you scan with a mobile device through the application. -
Page 21: Protective Earth (Pe) Pre-Test
Operation 5.3 Protective Earth (PE) PRE-TEST The EV45 must pass the PE PRE-TEST before further testing can be per- formed. This safety feature checks for dangerous voltages on the protective earth conductor of an EV charging system. 1. Connect the EV45 to the charging station, and activate the charger, as ex- plained above. - Page 22 Operation 6. Three seconds after the test passes, the display will show the maximum current capability of the connected charger, the phase line(s) detected, and the Control Pilot state, as shown in Figure 5.4, below. For this step, the state should be B, which indicates that the charger is connected but not charging.
