Charging Solution
Accessible Electricity Meters
For units with accessible electricity meters, the charging station must be installed directly on the branch (cable) that supplies power to the unit so that the electricity required to charge the electric vehicle appropriately billed directly to its owner. In order not to overload the existing building electrical infrastructure, an energy management system (such as the DCC-9 https://dccelectric.com/dcc-9, or equivalent) must be installed for each unit.
Inaccessible Electricity Meters
For units where the electricity meters are inaccessible, the charging station must be powered by a new electricity meter. With this approach the electricity required to recharge the EV will be newly billed by the electricity distributor/utility. The unit owner will therefore receive two invoices from the electricity distributor: one from the consumption of their unit, and one for the consumption of their electric vehicle.
Electrical Power
The maximum power of the terminal (circuit breaker) must be 240 volts, 40 amps.
