Learn how load management supports efficient charging and distributing power effectively across active charge points.
The following scenarios demonstrate how load management works. These scenarios are all based on a site that has six 22kW charge points installed, with 30kW of spare available electrical capacity.
When only one vehicle is plugged in, the load management system will provide the charge point with the maximum power available.*
*within the power rating of the charge point (in this case, 22kW), assuming that the vehicle being charged can accept this power rating.
When all six charge points are in use, the load management system will split the available power between all the charge points. This will charge all vehicles at 5kW each.
When any number of vehicles are plugged in, the load management system will ensure the maximum power possible is delivered, while not exceeding the site’s spare available electrical capacity.
