6. Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB)
The DLB function is an intelligent charging system that dynamically adjusts the charging station's power output based on the household's total circuit load. This prevents overloading and ensures electrical safety.
Working Principle:
- Total Current: Sets the maximum current capacity per phase (e.g., 80A) for the home circuit. Adjustable from 8A to 99A. Exceeding this value will trip the circuit breaker.
- CT Sensor: A monitoring device installed on the home main circuit that collects real-time total current data from all household electrical devices, including the charger.
- Charging Current: The real-time current used by the charger.
- Home Appliance: Total load of home appliances in the maximum load circuit, excluding the charging station. Calculated as "CT Sensor" - "Charging Current".
- Standby Current: Calculated as "Total Current" - "CT Sensor".
DLB Scenarios (Single Phase):
DLB Scenarios (Three Phase):
