USER MANUAL Power Boost Wallbox

Power Boost 2-27 28-5354-7980-105106-131132-157158-183184-209210-2352EN Summary: The communication to an energy meter that is connected at the household mains allows the Wallbox to regulate the charging power of the car depending on the household appliances consumption and the remaining power available. Installation and User Guide.4 The charger must be installed following the respective Installation Guide, that is delivered with the charger. Only energy meters that are delivered by Wallbox are compatible with this feature. Only qualified people are allowed to perform the installation as it is described in this document. Before the installation of Power Boost, the Wallbox must be powered o and its cover removed. After, the Wallbox must be properly closed, as defined in its Installation Guide.

1. Important NotesEN

Provided by Wallbox: Commander, Copper or Pulsar Plus Wallbox charger Energy Meter Additionally Required: Cable between Wallbox and Energy Meter (we recommend an STP Class 5E, 2 pair. The length depends on the customer-setup, while a maximum of 500 m can be installed). Philips Torx T9 (Commander or Pulsar Plus) Torx T20 (Copper) Cable pliers and stripping tools

2. Required Material and Tools6

Fig. 1: Schematic location of the Wallbox meter As shown in Fig. 1, the energy meter must be located after the utility meter (labled as “Wallbox Meter”) and before the split of power for the house. Install the energy meter to the mains according to its Installation Guide.

3. Location of the Energy Meter

CarWallboxOther house loadsEN Car After the energy meter has been installed according to its Installation Guide on the correct positioning, it must be connected to the Wallbox. The Annex “A” describes the cabling setup to the currently supported energy meters.

4. Cabling of the Energy Meter

Please check that your charger runs on the latest software. You can check this by connecting to it with the Wallbox App and review in the settings the software version. See the Wallbox’s User Guide for more information.

5. Software Version8

Max. current per phase: this value is the rated current of the main circuit breaker (MCB) of your electrical installation. This value determines the maximum current your installation can withstand. This value can usually be found marked on the MCB enclosure. For example, a MCB with rated current of 20 A will usually have the text “C20” or “20A” marked on it.

Warning: contact your installer in case of doubt about the rated

current of the MCB installed in your property. Only values of Max. current per phase greater than 6 A are accepted for a correct performance of the Power Boost functionallity.

You can configure Power Boost via the Wallbox App. Log-in to the Wallbox App, approach the charger, select the charger and wait until the synchronization has finished. Then select the “Power Boost” box inside the settings menu for configuring the parameter as described in Chapter 6. If your charger has been already connected to the Internet, you can perform the configuration via the App remotely.

Fig. 5: Configuration via the Wallbox App10 The following icons are visualized on the chargers screen*, once the energy meter has been detected. Energy meter detected but not configured. Follow the chapter 7 of this manual. Power Boost is configured but not limiting the charging power. Power Boost is limiting the charging current. The current available for charging the car is lower than the maximum power set by the user. In queue by Power Boost. The available power is not enough for charging the EV (lower than 6 A). Error in the communication with the energy meter.

*Doesn’t apply for Copper SB nor Pulsar Plus.EN The energy meter Carlo Gavazzi EM 340 is used for a 3-phase installation and the model EM112 for a 1-phase installation. Annex A.1 Carlo Gavazzi EM340 / EM11212 Fig. A1.1: Cabling in specified energy meters In the event that the supply scheme does not include a neutral line connection and/or the line-to-line voltage is below 260V, please connect the Carlo Gavazzi EM112 energy meter as shown in Fig. A1.2: Fig. A1.1 shows the cabling between the energy meter and the Wallbox.

The Temco power meter needs to be clipped to the mains power cable (schematic location shown in Fig. 1), with the current flowing in the direction as shown in Fig A2.1. Only the phase-cable must be drawn through the clamp. The neutral- cable must not be drawn through.EN Fig. A2.1: Energy Meter connection diagramm Direction of current
