Safety 2.1 Warning system 2 Safety 2.1 Warning system This operating manual contains notes that must be taken into consideration for your personal safety and in order to avoid injuries and damage to property. Warnings about your personal safety and to prevent personal injuries are marked with a warning triangle. Warnings on sole prevention of material damage are shown without a warning triangle. The warnings are shown in descending order depending on the hazard level as follows.
Safety 2.3 Symbols used 2.3 Symbols used Symbols on the device Symbol Meaning Please observe the information provided in this operating manual in order to avoid dangers. The device complies with EU directives. At the end of product life, dispose of the unserviceable device via appropriate collecting facilities provided in your community. The device is provided with protective insulation (protection class II).
Safety 2.4 Intended use Using the device Please observe the following basic obligations when using the device: • The device may only be used in a technically perfect and safe condition. Always check the device for damages before using it. • Make sure the personnel using the device is qualified for the respective task. • Observe relevant regulations on occupational safety and health as well as those on environmental protection.
Safety 2.5 Special types of risks 2.5 Special types of risks WARNING Dangerous voltage Danger to life or serious injury is possible due to contact with high electric voltage when working on live components or equipment. Even low voltages from 30 V AC and 60 V DC on can be dangerous to human life! • Please observe relevant regulations on occupational safety and health. • If necessary, use appropriate protective equipment.

Device description 4.1 Device structure 4 Device description 4.
Device description 4.2 Functions Pin assignment Figure 2: Assignment of the Type 2 connector for connection to the charging station (EVSE) 4.2 Functions The device is intended for the following tasks: • Simulating an electric vehicle (EV) for the charging station • Providing safe contacting for the installation tester The simulation of the charging cable and electric vehicle used is done via the rotary switches “PP-Status/State” and “CP-Status/State” of the device.
Device description 4.2 Functions Rotary switch “CP-Status/State” for vehicle simulation With the rotary switch “CP-Status/State” you can simulate different vehicle conditions. By means of the switch position, different resistance values and a diode are switched in the device between the CP and PE contacts. The communication signal (CP signal) is intended to control the charging process between the charging station and the vehicle (EV).
Operation 5.1 Testing with an installation tester 5 Operation You can perform tests with an installation tester [} page 17] or an oscilloscope [} page 18]. 5.1 Testing with an installation tester Requirements • BENNING installation tester With the device alone (without installation tester) you can only check the functions of the PP signal and CP signal of the charging station (EVSE).
Operation 5.2 Testing with an oscilloscope Procedure 1. Connect the installation tester to the device via the test socket or the 4 mm test sockets. 2. Select the desired positions of the rotary switches. – “PP-Status/State”: switch position “N.C.” – “CP-Status/State”: switch position “A” 3. Connect the device to the output of the charging station (EVSE) via the Type 2 connector. 4.
Operation 5.2 Testing with an oscilloscope Requirements • Oscilloscope (probe: 10:1, input resistance: 10 MΩ) • Charging station (EVSE) compatible with the device NOTE Oscilloscope • Using a 1 MΩ input resistor instead of the recommended 10 MΩ will reduce the amplitude of the CP signal by approx. 17 % compared to the actual value. • Compensate the oscilloscope and probe for correct signal representations. • It is recommended to use a portable and battery-operated oscilloscope.
Maintenance 6.1 Cleaning the device 6 Maintenance There are no components in the device that you can replace. WARNING Opening the device Danger to life or serious injury is possible due to contact with high electric voltage when opening the device. The device might get damaged. • Do not open the device. • Please contact your specialty retailer or the returns management [} page 8] for any repairs. 6.1 Cleaning the device Clean the device regularly and as the need arises.
