What are the new regulations ?
The government commitment that all new cars & vans must be fully zero emissions by 2035 will significantly increase the demand on the electricity system.
To help manage this demand “Smart Charging” of electric vehicles by “Smart Chargers” has always been encouraged and the new 2021 No 1467 Regulations just
enforce some further requirements of “Smart Chargers”. The Hypervolt Home series have always been smart chargers and already complied with most of the
changes but here is a bit more information about what’s new:
How to delete your personal data from the
device
Whilst Hypervolt Home 3.0 does not store
personal details about yourself, it does
store information about how you use your
charger, wifi credentials and other
information that the charger needs to
support its features and maintain any
settings.
You can delete any data stored on your
charge point by going into your app then
settings -> ‘Factory’ Reset.
Random Start
Your Hypervolt will come
pre set to do a random
start every time a
charging session starts in
Boost Mode whether that
be from a schedule or a
straight Plug & Charge.
The charge will start
anytime up to 10 minutes.
The delay will be shown
just below the Hypervolt
icon on the start page.
The charging indicator
will change from “Waiting”
to “Charging” when the
random delay is over. You
can opt out of this by
unselecting it on the “Your
Hypervolt” page.
Default Schedule
Your Hypervolt
will come with a
pre set off peak
schedule.
You can opt out
by either
changing the
schedule,
choosing Plug &
Charge or
unselecting
“Default
Schedule” on
the Your
Hypervolt page.
Note to Installers: Any default settings changed to enable testing of the Hypervolt Unit must be set back to the default setting upon completion
of the installation. Setting - Your Hypervolt - Default Schedule and Random Start - Both Set to On.
