Planning the Installation

Prior to the installation, it is recommended that you consider future charging needs, so that you can easily expand accordingly in the future.

If several Charging Robots are connected to the same circuit, the total current is dynamically distributed between them. The connected Charging Robots communicate wirelessly between each other, ensuring the circuit is not overloaded. The maximum charging current is set during configuration.

Special notes

Your house, power grid and EV

The Charging Robot automatically adapts to the power grid, the electric car and the capacity of the electrical installation. In the table you can see what charging effect you can expect from your installation and situation. The table is only meant as a guide.

⚠️ CAUTION The type of installation as well as cable cross-sections must be determined by a qualified electrician in accordance with valid local, regional and national regulations for electrical systems.

Padlock

It's possible to lock the electronics with a padlock ?. This will create an extra layer of security (padlock is not included).

Installation Instructions

⚠️ WARNING Turn off the power before you begin the installation. Use extreme caution and follow instructions carefully.

1. Opening

Diagram illustrating the process of opening the front cover. Step 1 shows inserting the tool into the bottom openings. Step 2 shows pulling the tool to detach the cover. Step 3 shows grasping the Type 2 socket to disconnect the Chargeberry.

  1. Bend down the lower part of the rubber cover and insert the two ends of the supplied tool into the two openings at the bottom of the front cover.
  2. Pull the tool until the front cover comes loose and remove the cover.
  3. Grasp the Type 2 socket and push upwards with good force until the Chargeberry disconnects.

We recommend that you watch the installation videos available on our website: easee.support.

2. Mounting

Backplate Mounting

Diagram showing the backplate with mounting points indicated by circles.

  1. Fix the backplate to a solid, non-perforated wall or structure with sufficient load-bearing capacity using the 4 wall screws provided in the mounting kit. Use suitable wall plugs for mounting and observe the local regulations for recommended installation height.

⚠️ CAUTIONS

? NOTE If you are going to install multiple backplates, now would be a good time to mount them as well.

3. Preparing

Backplate Preparing

Diagram illustrating the cable entry points and the placement of sealing plugs and strain relief for securing the cable.

  1. Shorten the sealing plug to fit the cable. The hole should be slightly smaller to ensure a good seal.
  2. Insert the cable through one of the 4 cable entries and secure it to the backplate with the strain relief provided. There must be at least 5 mm of cable extending beyond the strain relief.
  3. Close all cable entries that are not in use with the blind sealing plugs supplied.

⚠️ CAUTION The wires must not cross over the screw terminals or the Chargeberry slots. This will prevent the Chargeberry from seating in the slots.

4. Wiring

Backplate Wiring

Diagrams illustrating the wiring terminal blocks for different electrical configurations: TN/TT 3-phase (3x 230/400 V), IT/TT 3-phase (3x 230 V), TN 1-phase (230 V), and IT/TT 1-phase (230 V). Wires (PE, N, L1, L2, L3) are shown connected to the terminals.

  1. Strip each wire, exposing 12 mm of copper on each. If the cable has flexible conductors, then you must use ferrules on stranded wires to make the connection. Use correct tools to press them.
  2. Tighten the screw terminal with a torque of 5 Nm.

NOTES

5. Installing

Backplate Installing

  1. Scan the QR code to download the Easee Installer App ? and create a free account.

? NOTE Your phone needs to support NFC.

  1. Select one of the two site setups in the Installer App:

? NOTE If the charging circuits include more than one Charging Robot, the backplate that is configured first becomes the master unit of the charging infrastructure. To achieve the best communication flow, the centre backplate should be configured first.

6. Attaching

Chargeberry Attaching

⚠️ WARNING Insulation testing should be performed before a Chargeberry is installed in the backplate. Testing the circuit insulation with the Chargeberry installed in the backplate may damage the electronics or impact the reading negatively.

Diagram showing the Chargeberry being attached to the backplate. Arrow 2 indicates inserting the Chargeberry into the slots, and arrow 3 indicates pressing it down until it clicks.

  1. Turn on the power. The terminals of the backplates are now electrically live.
  2. Remove the PIN code sticker and attach it to the inside of the fuse cabinet, or another safe location for storage.
  3. Position the Chargeberry to fit into the slots on the backplate located in the center of the installation.
  4. When the Chargeberry is in the track, press it forcefully down until you hear a "CLICK".

? NOTE You do not need to touch the terminals of either the Chargeberry or the backplate when installing or removing the Chargeberry.

7. Closing

Front cover Closing

Before closing the front cover, it is possible to lock the Chargeberry with a padlock ? (see Planning the installation).

Diagram illustrating the process of closing the front cover. Arrow 1 shows hanging the cover at the top, arrow 2 shows pressing the bottom until it clicks, arrow 3 shows bending the rubber cover, and arrow 4 shows inserting the locking screw.

  1. Hang the front cover at the top of the backplate and let it fall into place.
  2. Press the bottom of the front cover until you hear a click.
  3. Bend the lower part of the rubber cover down.
  4. Screw in the locking screw at the bottom of the charger to secure the front cover.
  5. Close the rubber cover. If the cable is inserted from the bottom, you can cut a corresponding hole in the rubber cover to ensure a neat installation.

Your Charging Robot is now ready for use! ?

Features

Illustration of the Easee Home/Charge unit with numbered callouts pointing to: 1. Touch button, 2. Light stripe, 3. RFID area, 4. Type 2 socket.

  1. Touch button: The touch button is used to activate the local interface. The local interface is intended for local operations of the charger when no internet is available. Read more about the local interface at: easee.com/support/localinterface
  2. Light stripe: The light stripe communicates the status of the Charging Robot at all times. (See Charging Robot interface).
  3. RFID area: The integrated RFID reader enables access control of the Charging Robot and identification of different users. You can use it to unlock the charger with an Easee Key. Check our knowledge base at easee.support for more details on how to add and manage your Easee Keys.
  4. Type 2 socket: The Type 2 socket ? is completely universal and allows you to charge any type of electric vehicle using the appropriate charging cable. Furthermore, it is possible to permanently lock the charging cable, so you do not have to worry about it being stolen.

NOTE: Adaptors should not be used on the charger or the charging cable. The charging cable must have appropriate sockets on each end.
