What should be done when the charge point arrives?
Connection to the meter boxA charge point must always be safely and correctly connected to the meter box. For this purpose, a separate earth leakage switch is connected under the main fuse.
In addition, the supply cable must be sufficiently thick. This allows it to deliver high power for long periods without getting too hot.
Internet connection of the charge point
The functioning of the charge point also requires an internet connection. This can be done in three ways:
- via an internet cable (recommended)
- via wifi
- via a SIM card
A wired connection is the most stable and reliable, and therefore our standard recommendation.
Optional: Dynamic Load Balancing (smart charging)
Do you want to use smart charging? Then the charge point will be linked to:
- the smart meter, or
- a separate energy meter (e.g. kWh meter)
This way, the charge point automatically matches the charging rate to the total power consumption in the house.
Installation by an authorised partner
The installation of the charge point can be fully taken care of by one of our certified installation partners. They check:
- whether the meter box is suitable
- whether reinforcement is required
- whether smart charging is possible with your smart meter
