Protection Device
Note: The charging equipment will detect the current status of the surge protection module in real time. When the surge protection module is damaged, the display will have an alarm indicating that the surge protection device is faulty. When repairing and replacing the surge protection module, the left side cover must be removed first. Then the
maintenance person can operate the breaker in the surge protection circuit and replace the surge protection module.
(The red circle in the figure is the surge protection. When the indication window indicates green, the surge protection module is normal; when the indication window
indicates red, the surge protection module has been broken and damaged, and the surge protection module needs to be replaced.)

Installation and Wiring
- Firstly, according to regulation BS7671 18th Edition, the screen should be 1.2m-1.4m from the ground. Ensure you isolate the supply in the distribution panel before
repairing or maintaining the charger.
According to the dimensions in the following drawings, drill 4 holes for bracket mounting and 3 holes for holder mounting on the wall. Take out the expansion bolts
in the packing accessory bag, screw the expansion bolts into the holes. Remove the nuts and washers for later use.
- Loosen the 2 screws at the bottom of the charging equipment that fixes themounting bracket. Keep them safe for later use. Place the mounting bracket ontothe bolts and screw the nuts and washers on. Take out the cable hook and fix it using the same procedure.
Mount the bracket and cable holder - After the mounting bracket and cable hook holder are fixed, place the charging equipment onto the mounting bracket, with the outward curved part inserted to the slot on the rear side of the charging equipment. Lock the charging equipment onto the bracket at the bottom using the two screws. The installation process is then complete.
Insert the hanging hooks of the charging unit into the hanging holes and install in place - Using a suitable cable, we suggest you use a 5-core cable(with CPC included). For your convenience, a cable gland is provided. Unlock the unit, and open the door. Connect the cables into the terminal block, through the cable gland on the bottom right-hand side and secure them. (If hard wiring your internet connection, connect the network cable through the second cable gland to the RJ45 socket and tighten glads accordingly). Ensure all internal wiring is secure and correct, and all breaker positions are on, then close and lock the unit. The wiring is now complete.

5 Year Warranty Statement for ATESS EV AC/DC Chargers Authorized Warranty Installer (valid from 01.December.2020)
(These warranty terms are only applicable to UK consumers only for the ATESS EV chargers, bought through the authorized repair and installation partner)
Welcome to Project EV and ATESS, and thanks for choosing our Electric Vehicle charge point.
All our products are backed by a 5-year warranty (3-years parts and labour plus 2 years parts) giving you years of trouble-free charging.
However, in the unfortunate circumstances where something does go wrong, we are here to help and get you up and running as soon as possible.
Electric vehicles are changing all the time and even what appears to be the same manufacturer, model and year can have different battery and software configurations, we
understand this can be frustration but sometimes the problem can lie with the vehicle and manufacturer.
With this in mind, we have developed a product that allows our company to make changes remotely and update chargers to keep them running at their optimum and in
step with the latest electric vehicles on the road.
All we ask is that you follow the process below and make a number of small checks prior to calling or email the team.
- It sounds obvious but check the emergency stop button has not been activated.
- Check the RCD on the unit.
- Check the consumer unit in the property.
- Check all cables are installed correctly and are not loose or have been damaged.
- Check power cable to the vehicle.
- Check the manufacturers charging guidelines (doors may need to be locked and the vehicle alarmed etc.)
- Make sure the vehicle software is the latest version, please refer to the manufacturer guidelines.
- Please make sure the charger is online – we will not be able to remotely access or diagnose faults if it is not.
- Call 0800 599 9582
- Email [email protected] please take pictures or videos
- If we cannot diagnose the fault we will aim to get an engineer to your charge point location to rectify your problem with a replacement or fix the issue (we will not call out to solve or fix Wi-Fi or connectivity problems, please refer to your original installer.
