David Pearce Electrical was appointed the chosen contractor by Listers to design, install & commission a single & three phase electric vehicle charging solution at their PDI Centre in Rugby.
About The Project
Listers PDI Centre in Rugby is used to prepare multiple vehicles with a wide range of varying manufacturers. As such, the design stage was crucial to ensure that the proposed charging units would be sufficient for each brand of vehicle.
Working closely with Listers we were able to ascertain the requirements of each vehicle to allow us to provide a safe and easy to use system. Due to the nature of the power requirements the proposed charging units consume, consideration was given to the sites incoming supply.
Before commencing the works, we carried out the required loads tests to verify the supply characteristics, ensuring the charging units wouldn’t exceed the sites maximum demand.
- Installation of 3no. 2 x 32A, 7.2kW three phase electric vehicle charging IEC62196 (Type 2) Mode 3 charging socket outlets.
- Installation of 6no. 1 x 13A single phase supplies.
The installation was completed in accordance with BS7671:2008 + AM3:2015.
