ALM (Automatic Load Management)
Hypervolt's Automatic Load Management control is used to safety adjust
the maximum charging current an EV can take to prevent the charging
device being responsible for overloading the electrical service to a property.
When activated the charging current will drop to as low as 6A. Generally the
ALM system will activate for short periods every so often. If the ALM is
being triggered very regularly this could be a sign that the electrical service
to the property is inadequate for requirements.
The dial (6) can be adjusted to set the limit at which the load manager
activates. The diagram too the right shows what part of the dial is the
pointer, in this case pointing to position 5.
For the ALM system to work correctly it is very important that the CT Clamp
has been correctly installed (see pages 10,11 & 14)
The ALM dial is most normally set to 6 for 60A even in cases where the
main fuse value is higher. The units will normally come factory set to
position 6, but always check.
