Warning & Safety Notes:
Failure to follow these instructions may cause equipment damage or serious injury.
Install a Type A, double-pole, 30mA RCD upstream of the charger.
Recommendations:
40A Overcurrent protection.
Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) to protect against power surges.
To complete the installation, you will need the following:
Additionally, have your standard installation tools on hand.
Choose a suitable location:
Attach the mounting bracket:
Mount the charger:
Secure the charger:
The charger is pre-configured in PEST Mode B, ensuring compliance with BS 7671:2018 Amendment 3, Regulation 722.411.4.1, Indent (iv).
How it works:
In this mode the charger will monitor the for deviation outside of the acceptable range (253V – 207V).
If the charger needs to use Load Curtailment or Solar Mode features, an external CT (Current Transformer) must be installed. A CT is included in the box. This allows the charger to monitor the total electrical demand of the installation and the total export from any micro-generation system.
1. Position the CT:
The CT should be clipped onto the incoming live supply cable before any junctions. With the arrows facing the grid (see photo).
2. Connect the CT Clamp wires:
Use the provided jelly crimps to join the CT clamp wire to the Blue/Blue White pair of your data cable.
Data cable wire | CT clamp wire |
---|---|
Blue | Red |
Blue & white | White |
3. Terminate the data cable:
Using an IDC punch-down tool, terminate the Blue/Blue White wires into the CT connector.
Note: other data cable colours may be used but must terminate into the BE, BE/WE connection inside the charger.
1. Cable entry:
Cable entry can be made via the bottom or the rear of the charger through the marked entry points.
A minimum IP rating of IP65 MUST be maintained.
2. Connecting the supply to the charger:
Connect the supply to the charger as follows:
Supply cable | Charger connections |
---|---|
Brown (Live) | L |
Blue (Neutral) | N |
N/a | RefE |
Green/Yellow (CPC) | CPC |
Ensure there is no tension on the electrical connections by dressing the cables appropriately.

If you are using a wireless connectivity method, fit the appropriate dongle into the USB extension as shown below.
Note: If using a cellular dongle, record the WCD number before fitting.
Attach the front panel:
Use the 6 provided T20 screws to secure the front of the charger in place.
Install the fascia:
Hook the fascia to the top of the charger, hinge down and secure with T20 screw(s).
To perform electrical testing on the charging circuit, you will need a Multifunction Tester (MFT) capable of testing at 6mA or less*. Click on 'Steps to perform the test' for more information.
Additional Notes:
Dummy load testing allows you to perform a full functional test of the charger without an EV being present.

To connect and commission your charger, you will use the Indra Installer App:
If you already have the App and log in details for it:
If you don't already have the App:
Alternatively, click the button below to be redirected to the appropriate app store for your device.

To enable smart functions, the charger must be connected to the internet. There are three connection methods available:
For most users, we recommend connecting via Wi-Fi for a balance of convenience and functionality.
Important
Bluetooth pairing and SSID & Password Wi-Fi connection are available on chargers of firmware V11.1.1 or greater. Firmware information can be found on the box.
Power on the charger.
Use the Indra Installer App to connect the charger to the customer’s Wi-Fi network.
If you're unable to connect to the customer's Wi-Fi via the installer app, follow these steps to connect using WPS mode:
1. Connect the Dongle
2. Enable WPS mode on the router
3. Activate pairing on the charger
4. Wait for pairing to complete
The main LED will flash orange while the pairing process is underway.
Once pairing is successful, the main LED will flash green for 5 seconds before returning to white.
Connecting the charger using a 4G dongle
1. Record the WCD number
2. Insert the 4G dongle
3. Power on the unit
4. Confirm connection
Important
Please note that Indra is not responsible for cellular network availability, which may affect connectivity.
Once the charger is powered up and tested, the charger must be commissioned. Commissioning of the charger is done via the Indra Installer App.
If you haven't already done so, download the Indra Installer App.
