Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter
Designed for testing AC electric vehicle charging stations with type 2 connectors in accordance with applicable regulations, the Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter features two simulation modes:
- Proximity Pilot (PP) simulates the charging cable
- Control Pilot Line (CP) mimics vehicle connection status
The Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter will bring the EV charging point into various operating statuses enabling you to carry out the following measurements and checks:
- ZS fault loop impedance
- RISO insulation resistance
- Parameters of RCDs
- 1-phase and 3-phase tests with and without ventilation
Furthermore, to facilitate diagnostics, one of the Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter’s sockets is fitted with a pulse width modulation signal (PWM).
The Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter is a simple- and quick-to-use EV charging station tester. It is designed to be used with your Sonel MPI-540/MPI-540-PV Multifunction Tester. Please see the video below for more information about using the Sonel EVSE-01 Adapter with Sonel’s MPI-540 Multifunction Tester to check vehicle charging stations.
