J Measurement Category II is applicable to test and measuring circuits connected directly to utilization points (socket outlets and similar points) of the low-voltage MAINS installation. Earth. PE Protective Earth. CP Control Pilot. Vehicles not requiring ventilation for indoor charging areas.
Safety Information A Warning identifies conditions and procedures that are dangerous to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and procedures that can cause damage to the Product or the equipment under test. WX Warning To prevent the possibility of electric shock or personal injury: • Read all safety information before you use the Product. • Do not alter the Product and use only as specified, or the protection supplied by the Product can be compromised. • Carefully read all instructions.
Transport and Storage Please keep the original packaging for future transport (for example if calibration is necessary). Any transport damage due to faulty packaging will be excluded from warranty claims. The adapter must be stored in dry, closed areas. In case of the adapter being transported in extreme temperatures, a minimum recovery time of 2 hours is required prior to any operation.
Description of Warning Marks on Front Panel 1 2 1 Terminals with low voltage output (approx. ±12 V) powered by the charging station. Terminal marked with J is connected to PE. Use for test purposes only. The CP Signal Output terminals can be hazardous if there is a charging station error or incorrect wiring. 2 High danger of electric shock is present when PE Pre-Test indicator illuminates while performing PE pre-test (see Grounding protection Pre-Test). In this case, stop testing immediately.

Back of the Product Testing Charging Stations WX Warning To prevent possible electric shock, fire, or personal injury: • Before starting any tests, the operator must be familiar with the standard: SAE J1772, “SAE Electric Vehicle and Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Conductive Charge Coupler” and the documentation of the charging station in use.
3. Verify station maximum preset charge current using CP terminals and a meter with duty cycle function or an oscilloscope. 4. Simulate the error states as described in the SAE J1772 standard: CP Error “E”, GFCI trip test, and Grounding Error. Additional advanced tests such as Insulation Resistance, Power Quality, Analysis of the Control Pilot waveform, and Loop Impedance can also be done using the adapter in conjunction with appropriate test and measurement equipment.
Initiating a charging cycle: 1. Connect the adapter cable to the charging station. 2. Turn a CP switch to B position and wait 3 to 5 seconds – in commercial stations this may initiate a station to ask for payment information 3. Turn a CP switch to either C or D position depending on the type of station you are testing (respectively with or without indoor charging area ventilation requirement) to open the charging cycle. Note If the station does not begin the charging cycle, turn the CP switch to position A.
.5 % ≤ Duty Cycle < 10 %, Maximum current = 6 A 10 % ≤ Duty Cycle ≤ 80 %, Maximum current = (duty cycle %) x 0.6 85 % < Duty Cycle ≤ 96 %, Maximum current = (duty cycle % - 64) x 2.5 96 % < Duty Cycle ≤ 96.5 %, Maximum current = 80 A See detailed calculations in Table 3 below.

CP Error “E” simulation The standard SAE J1772 defines Error “E” as a state when charging station is: disconnected from vehicle, disconnected from utility, there is a loss of utility power or control pilot is short to control pilot reference (ground). To simulate the CP Error “E”: 1. Push and hold CP Error “E”. 2. While holding the CP Error “E” button turn the CP rotary switch to either C or D position. 3. The station should NOT open the charging cycle and a new charging process should be prevented.
Maintenance When using the test adapter in compliance with the Users Manual, no special maintenance is required. However, should functional errors occur during normal operation, after sales service will repair your instrument. Please contact the local service office. Cleaning • WX Warning Remove all input signals and measurement circuits before you clean the Product. • Never use acid-based detergents or solvent liquids for cleaning.
