Power Sharing
Typical Installation
With the embedded «PowerSharing
TM
» capability of the CoRe+PS, up to four charging stations can be
connected in parallel to the same branch circuit
Note 1: The electrical wiring and the associated electical hardware used to connect in parallel the charging stations shall be compliant to the local
regulations in place.
Up to 4 CoRe+PS stations sharing the same 40A circuit

Junction boxes allowing to connect in parallel on the same branch circuit
1. The charging stations connected in parallel to a same branch circuit must be the CoRe+PS model (the specic
model identication can be found on the unit label).
2. Without a site controler installed or in operation, each CoRe+PS limits its output to 8A.
3. To enable a dynamic sharing of current, a site controller must be installed and properly congured by
AddÉnergie.
4. The site controller will then ensure that available maximum current is shared optimally amongst the charging
stations (between 8A and 30A for each station), while making sure that the maximum circuit capacity (32A in the
case of a circuit protected by a 40A breaker) is never exceeded.
5. For safety reason, each CoRe+PS charging station will immediately interrupt an ongoing charging session when
the connected EV draws more than the amperage limit dictated at any time. To resume charging, the user must
restart the usage session process from the beginning.
6. The site controller is provided by AddÉnergie as part of central management service.
7. The communication between the site controller and the charging station is through a wireless meshed Zigbee
network. Refer to the communication gateway installation guide provided by AddÉnergie for more details.
8. The maximum number of charging station sharing the same 40A circuit (for a total load of 32A) is 4, although, to
keep the charging time reasonable, we recommand not to exceed 3 units per 40A circuit.
