    BSEN 60309 socket for ev charging

    Hi to all, I've been installing hypervolt and zappi units the last couple of years. Recently a client has come to me with Audi supplied 32amp charging lead. It has a 32amp Bsen 60309 commando plug and what looks like a protective device on the lead, a bit like a granny charger. Assuming i can...

    The new-ish ProjectEV Apex range

    I wonder why the modbus meter rather than just a CT clamp as you'd usually find. Any idea why?

    Anyone watched the TV documentary tonight about Heat Pumps and electricity supplies in general?

    He was ripped off. I felt sorry for him, he thought he was doing the right thing. More recently, I looked at an EV charger job. Client had an ASAP installed previous year. The contractor replaced the CU whilst there. On a TT system a dual RCD with circuits run off a couple of non RCD protected...
