What RCD protection is provided within the charger?
With every model of our Home series chargers, we include 30mA Type A residual protection with the addition of 6mA DC, we have designed our chargers this way to make them as easy to install as possible.
What O-PEN protection do you provide?
All our chargers provide state of the art O-PEN technology conforming to 722.411.4.1.(v). This allows the installer to connect the charger to any type of supply configuration.
Can I install your chargers to a single phase of a 3-phase supply?
You certainly can, we have designed our O-PEN technology with this in mind to give you peace of mind.
Do S&P chargers feature any built-in surge protection?
Yes, our Home Series chargers includes a type 3 surge protection device capable of absorbing 4500 amps in the event of an indirect lightning strike.
It also acts as an over-voltage clamp which will interrupt power to the charger if there is a sustained over-voltage event.
Furthermore, our patent pending S1 chip includes detection of lower level over-voltages, for example those caused by a PEN fault.
There is limited protection against direct lightning strikes, so you must determine if such protection is required for a particular installation.
