Setting | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Minimum current setpoint for an electrical vehicle to charge |
IEC 61851 |
6 A in both single and 3-phases connection |
EV/ZE ready |
8 A in single-phase, 14 A in 3-phase connection |
|
Load Shedding Priority |
Energy (default value) |
Proportional to the consumed energy (kWh). This option favors transaction that delivers the lowest amount of energy. |
Duration |
Proportional to the charging time. This option favors transaction that has been charging for the least time. |
|
Consumption Optimisation Configuration |
Setpoint reduction trigger value |
Difference between decreasing EV consumption and setpoint before triggering the optimization. Default value: 5 seconds Range: 0.1 s – 10 s There is a warning before changing this parameter. |
Reduction efficiency value |
Gap between the consumption and the new setpoint calculated by the optimization. Default value: 3 seconds Range: 0.1 s – 10 s There is a warning before changing this parameter. |
|
Minimal gap with EV consumption |
Gap between the increasing EV consumption and the setpoint triggering more power allocation to the charging station. Default value: 1 second Range: 0.1 s – 10 s There is a warning before changing this parameter. |
|
Allow Suspended by System |
Wake-up EV interval defined (in seconds) |
When the Allow Suspended by System option is enabled, if a transaction stops consuming energy (current lower than 1 A), EcoStruxure EV Charging Expert stops the transaction and restarts the transaction after a Wake-up EV interval defined (in seconds). |
