The selectivity of the protections has to be guaranteed at all times.3.- POWER SUPPLY LINE DIMENSIONINGThe dimensioning of the input power supply line of the Charge Point must be checked by a qualified electrician. Note that various factors such as cable length between distribution board and Charge Point, maximum output current of the Charge Point may have influence of the selected cable.In such cases, increasing the cable cross-section it is required to adapt the temperature resistance of the power supply line.3.- M A X I M U M O U T P U T C U R R E N TPlease refer to the TECHNICAL DATA section to consult the default factory settings from maximum output current of the Charge Point.If the power supply is less than maximum output current and adjustment to a lower nominal current needs to be performed, please refer to the current limit selector section.eHOMEShort descriptionThe eHOME Charging Point is specially designed to be easily installed both in outdoor and indoor private car parks, in order to charge all the EV models of the market in mode 3 (according to European standard IEC 61851-1), by just connecting either its tethered cable with a Type 1 or Type 2 connector or connecting the EV cable into the charger socket Type 2.Items included:ororInstallation GuideCharge Point Installation GuideThe eHOME Series can includes the RS-485, with interface Modbus in order to be managed by anexternal master device through it. 3 Overview315Measures in mm4 Dimensions158Measures in mmMaterial:Screws, sealing washers and plastic anchors are not included.The installation kit has been tested on a concrete wall.For the unit to be securely fixed in such conditions, it is recommended to use:3 x Inox A2 wall screws: Ø3x453 x plastic anchors: 6x40If the installation surface has different properties, the screws and plastic anchors must be defined by a qualified installer.Tools:Screw driverDrillerTap drill 6M5 InstallationWhen installing the unit, some space shall be reserved for usability, maintenance and safety reasons. Please comply accordingly to your country specifications.MIn. 600B Opening the unit1.- Remove the screw at the bottom of the box.2.- Using a screw driver, put it into the indicated marks, at the bottom of the box, and starting removing the frame doing click at the bottom.Beware of not breaking the plastic of the frame with the screw driver.3.- Grabbing the frame with the hand by the lower part, pull and take it off totally, from the bottom to the top.4.- Remove the six screws of the front part by using a screw driver and take out the front part of the enclosure.To make it easier help yourself with the screw driver while pulling theframe off.Be sure that the unit is not energized before going forward with theopening procedure.C Power supply line and data cable insertionThere are two possibilities to insert the electric wires or electric pipe:1.- Breaking out the cable insertion opening on the rear of the housing.2.- Using the cable insertion opening at the bottom of the housing.In all cases it is required to install a cable gland to ensure properly installation and preserve the IP of the unit.21.- Cable insertion opening on the rear of the housing (Breakable)2.- Cable insertion opening at the bottom of the housing1.- POWER SUPPLY LINE CABLE INSERTION OPENINGUse a hammer and a flathead screwdriver carefully in order to break out the cable insertion opening, as shown in the picture below.Do not make any other holes on the enclosure. Use only the markedcable insertion openings to install the required electric pipes. Installalways double membrane seals to ensure IP protection of the chargingpoint.Be careful of not damaging any of the inside components whenbreaking out the rear cable insertion opening.The data cable could be assimilated in the same electric pipe as thepower supply. However in order to avoid electric interference from thepower supply we recommend use FTP Cat5e or S/FTP Cat5e.2.- USING TH BOTTOM CABLE INSERTION OPENINGIntroduce the cable through the opening and fix it properly by means of the supplied M25 cable gland.12Do not make any other holes on the enclosure. Use only the namedcable insertion opening to install the required electric pipes. Installalways either cable glands or double membrane seals to ensure IPprotection of the charging point.D PositioningMake holes for fastener screws.M 6Max. 1200Front view1.- Mark 3 holes taking into account the picture measurements (also written on the rear face of the box).2.- Place the enclosure on a flat surface.3.- Use 3x45mm screws to fix the Charge Point to the wall.4.- Check whether the box has any inclination using a level tool.5.- Use Ø 6 drill size to make the 3 holes into the wall.6.- Install the anchor according to the surface material.E Fixing1.- Use a screwdriver to fix the Charge Point on the wall (recommended screw dimensions: 3x45mm)2. Use only the Charge Point holes indicated in the above picture to fix the Charge Point on the wall. Do not make any other holes on the housing; otherwise water can enter the Charge Point when it rains.F Electrical installationCurrent Device (RCD) externally to protecting the power line.MCBRCDOn these series, the eHOME and RS only could include electrical protections (RCD) in some configurations of the eHOME which are accessible for the electrical installer through a key safety door.The Charge Point is set to 16A three-phase / 32A single-phase fromfactory default settings.G Power Supply Line ConnectionH Current Limit SelectorThere is an onboard rotative Dip-Switch to configure the limit current of the unit. Depending on the position given to the Dip-Switch, the equipment will limit the to a certain maximum amperage value.To limit the power of the eHOME , the following table must be followed:If the eHOME works in Single-Phase mode, the maximum current value will be adjusted according to the values shown in the second column.In case of limit the eHOME as a Three-Phase device, the values shown in the third column will be used.Whenever the position of the DIP Switch is changed, to apply the changes, the equipment must be restarted by disconnecting the power supply.To work with a CirBEON (device that dynamically regulates the current delivered to the vehicle in Single-Phase configuration), please refer to section “I. BEON (optional)”.I CirBEON (Optional)CirBEON is an optional device that optimises the charge. DIP . In the eHOME range, the CirBEON-63 model is exclusively used and the maximum current selection available for the home is selected with a DIP switch.Analysing the total current consumption in residential facilities, CirBEON-63 manages the remaining current for the Charge Point, avoiding any tripping on the Main Circuit.Note that this accessory is only available for set the limit current in Single-Phase Charge Points.CirBEON-63 is connected downstream of the main power switch and upstream of the main loads.MCBOther consumptiondevicesThis one shall be connected to the port BOR5, on the PCB of the Charge Point.Signal cable has to be braided and to do two loops into the snap ferrite. The snap ferrite shall remain inside the Charge Point, as close to the PCB as possible.The maximum length of the Unique CirBEON-63communication cable must be less than 30 meters and shielded.The CirBEON-63 installation is accompanied by a DIP-SWITCH:A DIP-SWITCH is a selector that, thanks to a set of 10 possible positions to configure (which go from0 to 9), the installer will be able to interact with the charger.Whenever the position of the DIP Switch is changed, to apply the changes, the equipment must be restarted by disconnecting the power supply.CirBEON-63 configurationThe CirBEON-63 is capable of being installed in any type of home, regardless of the power contracted. Knowing the maximum current value contracted at home (second column of the table below), the position of the DIP-SWITCH will be adjusted:Once the Charge Point reaches the maximum value of 32A, this value will remain constant regardless of whether a higher contracted current is available at home.With the same DIP-Switch that was used previously to configure themaximum current of the equipment, as long as the electronics detectthat a CirBEON-63 is connected, the maximum current limit contractedin the house can be set.J Remote control functionRemote control function is a potential free contact which allows the remote start and stop of a charge transaction.This remote control function is disabled by default, by means of a jumper (as shown in the picturebelow). The jumper shall be removed to enable this function.When the jumper is removed, a device outside of the Charge Point can be placed to control the charge transaction. This device should close the contact “START” to allow the charge transaction. If the contact is open, the charge transaction wont be able to start.Do not remove the jumper if remote control function is not required, otherwise the charge transaction process cannot start while the contact is open.K Modbus RS-485 ConnectionPerform the Modbus RS485 data connection in the terminal shown in the picture below.Note: The Modbus RS485 provide the following terminals (A+, S, B-)Do not forget to connect the ground cable (S Terminal) and link to itscorresponding earth terminal.L Closing the Charge PointScrew the 6 bolts from the front cover in order to close the Charge Point. Screws are securelytightened at 1 Nm..Put the frame, from the top to the bottom of the box, ensuring it does click at the six points shownin the picture, then screw de bold on the bottom.Be aware of the cables between the cover and the base while closing the Charge Point.Use an screwdriver while pulling the frame off to make it easier.eHOMEM Verification1.- P O W E R I N P U TBefore proceeding, make sure voltage is present in the terminal blocks.For Three-Phase models pay special attention to Neutral Cable.2.- C A R E F U L W I T H T H E W I R E SBefore closing the unit, keep in mind all cables should remain inside.3.- C H E C K T H E P LU G SPlugs should be in good conditions before starting the unit.4.-E L E C T R I C A L P R OT E C T I O N SIf the unit includes electrical protections, rearm all of them.5.-C H E C K T H E B E A C O N I N D I C ATO R SAll beacon indicators should light properly.
