Metrel A1532 Electric Vehicle Charging Station Adaptor

Metrel A1532 Electric Vehicle Charging Station Adaptor

The Metrel A1532 Electric Vehicle Charging Station Adaptor revolutionises the way functional and safety tests are performed on electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE). Designed to interface seamlessly with Mode 3 EV charging points equipped with type 2 connectors, this adaptor simplifies the testing process, allowing checks to be conducted under live conditions without the need for disassembly. The A1532 is compatible with all Metrel multifunction testers, including those that offer enhanced features for a more thorough examination.

Utilising the Metrel A1532, technicians can simulate various vehicle charging states such as disconnected, charge ready, charging, and pilot error, thereby ensuring the charging point operates correctly across all scenarios. The adaptor includes unique features like the Proximity Pilot and Control Pilot resistance selectors, which simulate electric vehicle connection and communicate vehicle status to the charging station, respectively. This facilitates comprehensive testing of the EVSE’s response to different situations without the actual presence of an electric vehicle.

The inclusion of a BNC connector linked directly to the Control Pilot allows for detailed analysis of charging station signals and helps in diagnosing errors or malfunctions. This feature, combined with the ability to conduct full tests on connecting cables, plugs, and sockets, makes the Metrel A1532 an indispensable tool for ensuring the safety and functionality of EV charging stations. Its robust design and easy-to-use interface guarantee that all assessments are both thorough and efficient.
