Energy Groups
Energy management enables users to create a parent-child relationship between the groups, giving your installation modular protection. A group can only have one parent group. And in a group there can be stations and or sub-groups.
Energy management makes sure that neither the parent's, nor the child groups limits are exceeded
For example, your charging stations are connected to an installation with the following:
-
1 Transformer of max 100 kW
-
2 Sub-distributions of 60 kW each
You can create one parent group on the transformer level and two child groups on the sub-distribution level. In this way, each port get its equal share (proportional to the group) up until the child and/or parent group limit is reached.
Switch between Table and Cards view to access an overview of the available energy groups.
