Basic safety principles
Danger to life due to
DANGER
electrical voltage!
Injuries due to electric shock and/or burns, possibly
resulting in death, are possible.
e During all work, make sure at all times that power
to the system is switched off and secured so it
cannot inadvertently be switched on.
e Do not open the housing of the energy manager
under any circumstances.
Qualification of personnel
The electrical installation may only be performed by
persons with the relevant knowledge of electrical/
electronic equipment (electrician). These persons
must provide proof that they have the specialist
knowledge required to install electrical systems in
the form of an examination certificate.
Improper installation can endanger your own life and
that of others.
Requirements for the electrician performing the
installation:
– Ability to evaluate test results
– Knowledge of IP ratings and their use
– Knowledge about fitting of electrical installation
material
– Knowledge of the applicable electrical/electronic
and national regulations
– Knowledge of fire safety measures and general
and specific safety and accident prevention
regulations
– Ability to select suitable tools, testers and, if
necessary, personal protective equipment, as
well as the electrical installation materials for
ensuring tripping conditions
– Knowledge of the type of electricity network
(TN, IT and TT System) and the resulting
connection requirements (protective earthing,
earthing without a PE conductor, additional
measures necessary)
Product information
The energy manager manages energy in combination
with the Porsche charging equipment, which
1)
supports this feature.
The energy manager individually measures and
assesses the available power and electricity
consumption of different appliances. The energy
manager communicates with the Porsche charging
equipment via an interface, letting it know the energy
costs and how much power may be made available
for charging the hybrid or electric vehicle.
During charging, the Energy Manager updates the
maximum available charging current in real time
based on the latest data.
The electrician sets up the energy manager for you
via a web application, in which he/she sets all the
necessary values. This protects the existing electrical
installation from overload and enables your vehicle to
be charged at low cost. However, this feature is only
available if different electricity rates/prices and/
or an existing photovoltaic system are used.
When vehicle charging is started, the so-called
negotiation phase begins and the energy manager
generates price and output tables based on the latest
version of ISO/IEC15118.
Transmission between the energy manager and the
charger takes place via Ethernet, PLC (Powerline
Communication) network or WiFi using the EEBus
protocol.
1) For compatibility, please refer to your charger's
operating instructions and find out more from your
Porsche partner.
Basic safety principles
If the (home) network does not have a PLC router,
the energy manager must be configured as
a PLC DHCP server.
f Refer to chapter "Displays and controls" on
page 19.
Proper use
The energy manager is used primarily to safeguard
the power supply (overload protection) by preventing
the main fuse from blowing.
The following count as improper use:
– Independently modifying or adding attachments
to the energy manager
– Using the energy manager for any other purpose
than that described here
The energy manager is designed as a DIN rail-
mounted device, and the necessary electronic and IT
conditions must be ensured for its installation.
Where the electronics are concerned, this means
that the energy manager must be installed in a
suitable distribution box. If these distribution boxes
are not available or obtainable in your country, you
will receive one from your Porsche partner.
For information on the optional wall-mounted
distribution box:
f Refer to chapter "Scope of Supply" on page 19.
Disclaimer
If the energy manager is damaged due to transport,
storage or handling, repairs are not possible.
Opening the housing of the energy manager
invalidates the warranty. This also applies to damage
due to external factors such as fire, high
temperatures, extreme ambient conditions and use
other than for the intended purpose.
