4.4.1.2Charging sockets with 3-pos. locking actuator

Figure 4-3Connecting the charging socket with 3-pos. locking actuator

Connect Control Pilot (CP) and Proximity (PP) to the “Socket” connector of the charging controller.

Make sure that the protective conductor connection of the charging socket is connected to the DIN rail of the charging controller.

Provide a protective circuit to protect the “Lock Detection” input against excessively high voltages. The protective circuit consists of a 1 kΩ resistor and a 3 V Zener diode in accordance with Figure 4-3.

Configuration of the control and feedback signals of the charging socket is performed in the web-based management. There, select a charging socket from Phoenix Contact (see “Charging Connection” on page 89).

Select “Socket” as the connection type. Select the type of the charging socket used from the drop-down menu.

The corresponding parameters for evaluation and control are set automatically.
