Typical Installation
PowerSharing™
With the embedded PowerSharing™ 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 40 A 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 specific model identification can be found on the unit label).
2. Without a site controler installed or in operation, each CoRe+PS limits its output to 8 A.
3. To enable a dynamic sharing of current,
a site controller must be installed and properly configured
by FLO.
4. The site controller will then ensure that available maximum current is shared optimally amongst
the charging stations (between 8 A and 30 A for each station), while making sure that the
maximum circuit capacity (32 A in the case of a circuit protected by a 40 A 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 FLO 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
FLO for more details.
8. The maximum number of charging station sharing the same 40 A circuit (for a total load of 32 A)
is 4, although, to keep the charging time reasonable, we recommand not to exceed 3 units per
40 A circuit.
