In the case of installations of more than one Dazebox Home under a single load balancer, the Load Balancing functionality
allows the power allocated to the network to be distributed among the loaders without exceeding the total limit that can
be set via the app. This functionality is based on a Master/Slave architecture, so a loader must be chosen as Master of the
network during installation. A Master loader can manage up to 7 Slave socket points. Load Balancing configuration is done in
the App (see Chapter 11).
Load Balancing connection
The Load Balancing functionality is based on Modbus TCP/IP communication between loaders. Therefore, in order to con-
figure this functionality it is sufficient to connect all loaders under the same router via Ethernet cabling (see chapter 8 for
Ethernet connection) or under the same WiFi network.
In the event of a loss of connection of one or more slave chargers, these will charge at a fixed minimum power (1.5 kW sin-
gle-phase, 4.5 kW three-phase). The master takes this phase shift into account when balancing the grid.
Finally, complete the installation by configuring the functionality via the Daze app.
For more information on the complete load balancing installation, please refer to the manual downloadable from www.daze.
eu.
Note: It is not possible to configure and use two different load balancing networks under the same network connection
1
(WiFi or Ethernet). In situations where multiple load balancing networks are required, it is essential to assign each network its
own dedicated WiFi or Ethernet connection.
Note: To ensure proper functioning of the Load Balancing functionality, the total length of the Modbus cable between the
2
router and the master loader must not exceed 200 metres.

The Load Balancing functionality is compatible with both single-phase systems (where single-phase chargers must be
installed) and three-phase systems (where three-phase chargers must be installed). In the case of a three-phase system with
three-phase loaders, it is important to distribute the phases equally in the wiring of the different Dazebox Home in order to
avoid an overload on one phase (see fig. B). When configuring the Load Balancing functionality via the app, it is required that
the order of the phases on each individual loader is reported.
