PCE-EVSE-KIT2 EVSE measuring device for checking fixed installation. Charging stations/wall boxes, variety of functions

The EVSE measuring device is a robust installation tester with a large 3.5” TFT color LCD display. With the installation tester you can ensure that fixed installations are installed safely and correctly. Thanks to the dual display, the intuitive symbols and the high viewing angle you can carry out your measurements quickly and conveniently with the installation tester.

With the low-impedance measurement of the installation tester, you can check the grounding conductor, equipotential bonding rails and protective conductor for low-impedance continuity. The measuring range for the low-impedance measurement of the installation tester is in the range of 0...2000 ? with a resolution of 0.001...1 ?. Probably the most important measurement of the installation tester is the measurement of the insulation resistance. When measuring insulation, electrical lines are live in order to allow fault currents that cause material migration or heat to flow. In most cases, these residual currents are so minimal that they are not detected by protective devices and, in the worst case, can lead to a fire. The installation tester can perform the installation measurement with a test voltage of 125 V, 250 V, 500 V or 1000 V. The test current is 1 mA in each case. the

The installation tester’s grounding measurement is independent of the mains supply. In order to bring all systems and circuits of a power supply system to a common potential (reference earth or reference potential) and to protect against short-circuit currents and overvoltages, the earthing resistance should be as low as possible. With a measuring range of 0...2000 ? and a resolution of 0.01...1 ?, the installation tester offers all the prerequisites for a meaningful measurement of the earthing resistance.

EVSE adapter for charging plugs type 1 and 2 / PP and CP simulation / Schuko socket connection / direct acceptance of all connections via laboratory plug Electromobility is playing an increasingly important role. An important point is the charging stations for electric vehicles. Special measuring devices are required to check the permanently installed charging stations, also known as wall boxes, in order to check the function, the protective devices and the insulation. Measuring devices are often already available to carry out the required measurements. An adapter is therefore required so that the measuring device can be connected to the charging station. The EVSE adapter is specially designed for this application and already has a large number of functions. All lines that leave the charging station are output individually via laboratory plugs. Thus, all lines can be tapped via the EVSE adapter. This allows the charging station to be checked for insulation using the EVSE adapter. The EVSE adapter has a Schuko plug connection. The RCD tester can thus be used to check the residual current device. A charging cable not only contains the supply lines for charging an electric vehicle, but also two interfaces.

The electric vehicle communicates with the charging station via the CP line (Control Pilot) and communicates the current status of the electric vehicle. The PP line (proximity plug) is used for communication between the connected charging cable and the charging station. The charging cable can thus tell the charging station how many amps it can be loaded with. In order to test both functions, the EVSE adapter is equipped with appropriate simulators.
