Before using the EVC7KW:
Only use the charger for EV charging.
Do not use the charger if it is damaged.
Do not attempt to open, modify or repair the charger yourself.
Do not disconnect the charger while it is actively charging.
Follow the user manual before use.
Inspect the charger regularly for visible damage.
Do not modify, retrofit or alter any part of the charger.
Do not use near volatile gases or flammable atmospheres.
Avoid misuse such as dropping or immersing the charger.
Confirm the input voltage, frequency and circuit breaker are suitable before use.
Do not use the device if it does not operate correctly.
Plug directly into a suitable socket outlet.
Do not use an adapter unless it is part of the product and meets the required standard.
Ensure the charger remains off the ground during normal use.
The EVC7KW is rated for 230VAC input.
The manual lists the supported power system as:
TN-C
TN-S
Before charging, confirm:
Socket outlet is suitable for the selected current.
Supply voltage is within range.
Circuit protection is suitable.
Plug and socket are clean and undamaged.
Connector is not loose.
Charging cable is not damaged.
The charger is not exposed to unsafe conditions.
The current setting must be selected after the charger is plugged into the AC outlet and before the charger handle is connected to the vehicle.
If the current is not selected before connecting to the vehicle, the charger may not function as expected or may default to the previous setting.
The display can show:
Selected current
Vehicle connection status
Charging status
Charging time or timer information
Error indication if a fault is detected
The charger locks the selected current once charging begins.
This is normal operation and prevents the charge setting from being changed after the user leaves the charging session.
Check the following:
The charger is connected to mains power.
The correct charge current was selected before connecting to the vehicle.
The Type 2 connector is fully inserted into the EV.
The vehicle is ready to accept charge.
The socket outlet is suitable for the selected current.
The input voltage is within range.
No error code is displayed.
The charging cable and connectors are not damaged.
The plug and socket are not loose, dirty or overheated.
Stop using the charger and check the displayed error code.
Follow the recovery action listed in the error code section. If the error remains, contact Projecta support or a qualified electrician.
Possible causes include:
Supply circuit not suitable for selected current
Over-current condition
Earth leakage fault
Damaged cable or connector
Loose socket connection
Over-temperature protection
Vehicle charging issue
Reduce the selected current if the supply circuit is not rated for the higher current setting.
If the issue continues, stop using the charger and have the power supply checked by a qualified electrician.
