How to balance the electrical load in your home with Connect
To charge at optimal power and harmoniously adjust the load, add Dynamic Power Management to your Connect. The Connect will continuously communicate with the DPM module, constantly measuring the energy used by your household appliances and dynamically adjusting the charge speed of your car. This means you can always charge at maximum speed, without the risk of overloading your connection. Our installers will configure the Connect in such a way that your maximum speed doesn't hamper your household. Handy if you simultaneously use devices in the house that use a lot of power.
DPM comes at an extra cost but in most cases, it spares you the expense of upgrading your grid connection. Upgrading your grid connection will cost you a one-off installation payment as well as additional monthly payments. The cost depends on your network operator and your home situation.
Upgrade Connect with Dynamic Power Management
Optimal charge speed without overloading your home. It harmoniously distributes power to your whole house so all your appliances can run with the power they need.
Comparing the Advanced with the Connect
Both Connect and Advanced let you bring the ultimate charging experience to your doorstep. Our smart and safe home EV chargers are ready for every type of residence.
Connect is our affordable, EV wall charger. With Advanced besides the option to customise colour and mounting type, the most crucial difference is the availability of some smart services. Automatic cost reimbursement is not possible with the Connect, so if you want the option to get costs reimbursed by your employer, Advanced is the right model for you.
