• Insulation test
The charging system is equipped with a discon-
necting relay and therefore requires two insulation
measurements. The charging system must be discon-
nected from the mains for this purpose. Therefore,
switch off the mains voltage at the circuit breaker in
the building’s electrical cabinet before performing
the measurement.
» First measurement on the primary side of the
charging system
On the primary side of the charging system, meas-
ure the insulation resistance at the connection
point of the charging system’s supply cable in the
building’s electrical cabinet. The value must not be
lessthan1MΩ.
The charging system is equipped with an
overvoltage protection device. This may be
taken into account when performing the
measurement.
» Second measurement on the secondary side of
thecharging system
To do this, connect the charging coupler to a
test adapter for vehicle simulation according
toENIEC61851-1.Performtheinsulationmeas-
urement via the measuring sockets on the test
adapter.Thevaluemustnotbelessthan1MΩ.

measurement must be performed at the connec-
tion point of the charging system’s supply cable in
the building’s electrical cabinet.
Depending on the measuring instrument
used, it might not be possible to perform
thefollowing measurement on the adapter.
In this case, perform the test at the connec-
tion terminals.
• Testing the switch‑off condition in the event of
ashort circuit (Z

)
To perform these measurements, connect the charg-
ing coupler to a test adapter for vehicle simulation
accordingtoENIEC61851-1.Themeasurementsmust

urements at the test adapter’s measuring sockets.
The values in accordance with the selected circuit
breaker must be observed.
• Testing the switch‑off condition in the event of the
RCD tripping

ing coupler to a test adapter for vehicle simulation
accordingtoENIEC61851-1.Themeasurementmust
