1. What is Load Balancing for EV charging?
The current in every building is limited. Load balancing ensures that when multiple appliances or EVs are drawing power, the system prevents the main fuse from tripping by managing the distribution of electricity.
2. What is Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB)?
Dynamic Load Balancing is an intelligent feature that allows an EV charger to monitor real-time energy usage in your home and automatically adjust its own power draw to maintain an optimum balance without overloading the circuit.
3. Why is DLB important for residential charging?
If your house has older electrical circuits or limited capacity, adding an EV charger might exceed the load limit. DLB reduces the need for expensive electrical infrastructure upgrades by optimizing the available power.
4. Does the charging speed change during DLB?
Yes, the charger will "dial down" the energy demand when household appliances (like an oven or washing machine) are active. Once those appliances are turned off, the charger will automatically increase the speed again.
5. Is the load management process automatic?
Yes, the entire process happens automatically. Our EV chargers have built-in management capabilities that handle the energy adjustments without manual intervention.
6. What are the installation options for these chargers?
Our units are primarily designed for wall-mounted installation, making them space-efficient and convenient for garages or driveway mounting.
