Application of Annex A of CENELEC Guide 32, Safety aspects relating to low voltage equipment, in particular the "3-
step-method": 1) Inherent design measures, 2) Techical safety measures, 3) Information for use.
Overload and short-circuit protection is ensured with use of suitable MCB. Additional surge protective device could
be required by national legislation. Protective devices can be installed either in charger, or in an installation
upstream. Coordination and selectivity of protection devices with upstream devices should be ensured, so that
only the protection device, the closest to the fault, operates.
Electrical burns and other injuries are prevented with use of appropriate protective devices, properly designed
insulation and prevention of arcs.
To prevent leakage currents, the suitable RCD protection device is used either in charging station, or in an
installation. Each socket must be protected by individual RCD. The power supply was selected to have a negligible
leakage current.
The use of quality housing with use of additional structural supports ensures high resistance on mechanical stress.
The proper installation of mounting anchor ensures that the charger is rigidly supported and can not turn over.
Our charging stations are tested to determine the IK code (degree of protection provided by enclosure) in
combination with tests to determine IP code (ingress protection).
The use of quality housing with use of sealing foam and filters ensures high resistance to ingress of particles. Our
charging stations are tested to determine the IP code (ingress protection) in combination with tests to determine IK
code (degree of protection provided by enclosure).
The only moving part representing the hazard is the opening and closing of the doors. The doors should be closed
only if there is nothing blocking them (either mechanical object, or human hand). This risk is also mitigated with the
explanation in the user and installation manual.
There is a possibility that sharp edges occur during the production process during the cutting and assembly of the
housing. For this reason, possible sharp edges that could harm a person, were identified and are grinded away
after the assembly. The wires are also protected so that they do not come into contact with the remaining sharp
edges. Proper processing, finishing and coloring procedures of the surfaces ensure high quality product.
The components are dimensioned in such a way that they cannot cause a charge that would be hazardous to
human health. In case of vehicle malfunction, the possible hazard of stored charge is mitigated by the use of RCD.
The major concern with vibrations is the loosening of electrical connections. For this reason, special care is made
during the production process to use the optimum torque and tightening sequence for fasteners with use of tools
with settable screwing torque.
Moving parts, especially where
there may be variations in the
rotational speed of parts
The tolerances of parts are high enough to not represent a problem during the manufacturing process. In addition,
the manufacturing instructions are covering all possible improper fittings of connectors and other components. All
charging stations are put on the testing line after assembly where possible improper fitting would be identified.
Basic protection is provided with selection of appropriate insulation of all components and in addition live parts
are not accessible during charging. Fault protection is achieved with earthing of all exposed conductive parts and
with automatic disconnection of the supply in case of a fault. Additional protection is also provided, with use of
high sensitivity RCD's.
The use of suitable switching and protective devices ensures that possible arcs are extinguished quickly and
without causing damage.

Charging station complies to all requirements of the standards of the EN 61851 family, to all parts relevant to AC
conductive charging and is compliant to all versions, current and old. This family of standards covers requirements
for charging stations from all aspects, however some details are covered in other standards, as listed in this table.
Charger construction ensures that break-down during operation is not possible in normal conditions. This would
be possible only with high enough external force, e.g. vehicle collision. For this reason the recommendation for
public charging stations is to use protective bollards.
