4.2. വൈദ്യുതി ബന്ധം

The EVIPOWER-1 comes with a 37-inch input cable and a NEMA 14-50 plug for easy plug-in installation. Connect the charger to a dedicated 240V NEMA 14-50 outlet. For hardwired installations or specific amperage requirements, consult a qualified electrician.

4.3. Amperage Adjustment (Internal Dip Switch)

The EVIQO EVIPOWER-1 charger features an internal rotary dip switch to set the maximum charging current. This is a physical setting that requires opening the unit. By default, the switch is set to 40 Amps. If your circuit breaker is rated for 40 Amps, you should adjust the charger to 32 Amps (80% of the circuit breaker rating). For hardwired installations on a 60 Amp circuit, the charger can be set to 48 Amps.

To adjust the dip switch:

1. പവർ വിച്ഛേദിക്കുക: Ensure the charger is completely disconnected from the power source.
2. Open the Unit: Carefully remove the seven screws located on the back of the unit to access the internal components. These screws ensure the weather seal.
3. Locate Dip Switch: The control board is on the back of the front cover. On the upper left-hand side of the control board, you will find a small rotary dip switch.
4. Adjust Setting: Use a small screwdriver to turn the dip switch to the desired amperage setting. Refer to the table below for common settings:

പ്രധാനപ്പെട്ടത്: Always ensure the charger's amperage setting does not exceed 80% of your circuit breaker's rating for continuous loads.

For a visual guide on adjusting the dip switch, please refer to the video below:
