Is this the most beautiful electric vehicle charging point ever?
Join me in the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside as I install an Andersen A2 Electric Vehicle Charging Point at this large period property, in situations where aesthetics are very important, the Andersen A2 Charger really shines, in this video, I explain why.

Fixing the box to the wall before attaching the cables creates a potential back injury issue. We have a little camping chair where we connect the cables while sitting with the unit across our knees. Way less bending and awkward angles. Once cables attached, then attach to wall. This allows for any mistakes in cutting the cable too short.

I wish you luck with the T6 LWB 82 mile range when empty van. A few of us tried them out and unless you're city based it's just not got the range, the E-Vivaro would have been a better choice imo. Lovely install but normally we'd dead test the customer supplied cable before fitting the charger - saving a potential wasted day if it has been damaged when buried.

@cogdriver 3 года назад

Next time you install an A2 and once you have stripped the cables and are happy with the fitment, pull the armoured cable back out of the A2 and mark out a template from the entry gland cut up to the 3 core ends. Any future A2 installs will be a lot quicker and easier to mark and cut each point using the same template from entry gland upwards before feeding into the A2. Bit of a minor faff the first time, but worth it.

@shmubob 3 года назад

Would that EV cable with the Cat5 built in not drop a lot packets! Even shielded Cat5 running in a conduit shared with AC power is gonna give a lot of interference. But for just a control panel on a charger I guess having good transfer speeds isn't too vital so it'll work.

@adamhorden 3 года назад

That is a TPN service head. There is a secondary head and that is for E7 (hence the single control fuse and E7 meters). The main head is TPN then you have that secondary TPN head used for E7. There is TPN MCBs as well fed from the main head. I see this type of setup in this area quite a bit where the incomer is TPN and then a secondary head for E7 using a TPN head just to confuse you. Also as that secondary head is fused back at the substation I would be securing the link (split con or civil duct I cannot tell) that had the SWA hanging off it. Now if you open the top part of the main head you will find three BS88 fuses going off to that TPN panel. This should only be a DNO job though. But that will be the main TPN supply. Hope this helps 🤓.

The idea of a power cable with a data cable built-in goes against everything I was taught about running CAT5 cables and not running them closely in parallel with high current power cables. I'm guessing that these combined power and data cables have the appropriate shielding to mitigate this.

@Midori900 3 года назад

in germany you need a type B rcd for ev chargeing points and we have type A as standard in the houses

@Marcel_Germann 3 года назад

Depends on the manufacturers instructions and the specific model of charger. Several models have a 6mA DC protection integrated, there a type A RCD is sufficient. But some have not, for example the older Tesla charger don't have DC protection in it, so a type B RCD is mandatory. Alternative to type B RCD is the type A+EV, but there's only one manufacturer for that (Doepke). It's a type A RCD with a 6mA DC protection.

@paulegan1476 3 года назад

I thought these charge points need a type A and B 6mA… ?

@Marcel_Germann 3 года назад

@@paulegan1476 Either type A or B, depending on the charger which type is required. The ones with integrated DC protection are more expensive than the ones without. But the price difference in the charger doesn't matter, because if you pick the cheaper charger you'll have to invest in the more expensive type B RCD. And never install two RCDs in series, except the first one is a time-delayed and the tripping current at least three times higher than the one coming afterwards.

that tool to strip the cable isn't made for armored cables, that's why it's dull

@jensschroder8214 3 года назад

In Germany, three-phase 11 kW chargers are common. For 22 kW you need the approval of the electricity supplier, for 11 kW you only have to report the installation. That is then 3x 16 amps. A disadvantage is when a car only wants to charge one phase 32 amps and is reduced to 16 amps. That would be only 3600 watts to an 11 kW three phase charging point.

I was looking at the ultra ev cable and it comes with either cat 5e four twisted pair or with a screened pair. Do you have any preference? Do you think we would need cat 5e in the future or is this for lack of WiFi? Thanks, Stuart

@JasperJanssen 2 года назад

Four pairs is more than one. So for future proofing, go with that one, especially if the cost differential is not that significant compared to what you’d pay someone to dig a new trench for more cable. There’s a bunch of current charge points that can already handle up to three current transformers, on three separate pairs of wire. But then there are also usually solutions for the monitoring of those CTs to be done at the site and just transmit data, usually wirelessly, to the charge point. So… I mean, this really is a “just in case” sort of outlay. Even the single pair is, really. But I have no idea what the effective extra cost is from just power to single pair to cat5. But my bet is that single pair or cat5 isn’t a huge difference in cost. A secondary usage for these cables, which is not what they’re marketed for, but… outbuildings. The shed/pool house/granny annex at the back of the garden. Those are *immensely* helped by power+cat5 in one cable.

Could you tell me what camera and mic you have?

Why did you strip the cover off the entire length of the excess cable at both ends instead of cutting the cable to about 1 foot of excess and then stripping the cover off that 1 foot, or whatever amount was actually needed? That would have left you with a lot of still usable cable for another project and it would have taken much less of your time.

take the box off put the cable in and then put the box on

You mentioned that you needed to test the cable BEFORE you can make any tests because the cable might be damaged, then you installed the cable into the consumer unit before you made any tests. If you were particularly worried about damage, why did you not test the cable before installing it? If the cable had been faulty, you could have wasted a lot of time.

Not sure if you used them here or not Jordan, but I've seen Cory use them, which brand of knock in metal clips do you use to fix the SWA to the wall..? Are they D-Line or another brand?
