ZAPTEC Pro Bedienungsanleitung Seite 9

If a number of Zaptec Pro charging stations are being set up with a shared
network solution such as Wi-Fi-PLC, this may lead to the Zaptec Pro charging
stations swapping between the different PLC communication networks, which
may lead to an unstable network connection. Sparing use of this network option is
recommended, and ideally only one Zaptec Pro charging station in the installation
should be enabled with this network solution.
Power grid
Power and PLC communication
Limit noise from the power grid and external sources. Zaptec recommends
installing the PLC module in the middle of the charging circuit. This will enhance
the performance of the PLC network and limit external noise sources for the
PLC network.
This network option must only be used between Zaptec Pro charging stations. If
Zaptec Pro charging stations are configured with a shared network solution such
as a PLC-Wi-Fi Access Point, this may allow other Wi-Fi devices to use the same
network. If unauthorised individuals have the SSID and network password used
to set up the Zaptec Pro charging station, this may result in increased 3G/4G
subscription costs, reduce the Internet connection between charging stations and
because the Internet connection to become unstable, as data traffic will increase
by more than was envisaged.
Recommendations – PLCs
When using PLCs, we recommend using one PLC module per course/cable run.
With long cable runs, we recommend that you install the PLC module close to
the charging stations.
Zaptec Pro uses phases L1 and N for PLC communication. Use L1 and N as well
when installing the PLC module. Connection: N + L1 + PE.
On the IT network, note: When you install the PLC module in an IT network, you must only
connect to the two phases powering L1 and N at the charging stations (L1 and L3) + PE.
Install it as described in the installation manual.
If the PLC modules are fully encrypted, configure the charging stations as described
in the procedure supplied with the PLC module.
