How do you check those surges? A
n engineer recently and asked me, how do you test Surge Protection Devices (SPD)?” said
Brendan Beaver manager of Metrel UK, the supplier of innovative test solutions. “He went on to say “if RCDs fail out of the box, don’t
surge protectors? Of course there is the indicator, but things go wrong during manufacture. The 18th Edition drives us to fit them, but at the end of the day I am responsible should a device I fit fail to operate during some overvoltage event. There seems no way I can protect myself” Sympathising Brendan said he could test them.
Metrel multi-function testers have offered a SPD function test for many years. It is a simple test displaying the result as an AC equivalent for recording.

www.bit.ly/MI_3125 Introducing the next-generation EV charge controller A
new, safer and more cost-effective Mode-3 electric vehicle charge station controller has been developed by the Bender Group.
The compliant, smart-grid-capable CC613 EV charge controller monitors the integrity of an
electric vehicle charge station. Conforming with OCPP 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 - CC613 communicates with the electric vehicle and backend system, monitoring charge station internal hardware, user interfaces and the connection between the electric vehicle and charge station. With inbuilt Dynamic load management (DLM) capability, it allows for smart, optimal and priority distribution of the available power among all networked charging points.
CC613 incorporates a host of features, enabling the manufacture of safe, connected,
compliant charge stations: • Equipped with ISO15118 Power Line Communication for plug and charge, and networking the charge controller with an energy management system
• Updated to new IEC 62955 standards for AC residual current monitoring, enabling the use of a type A RCD, eliminating the need for the costly type B RCDs
• Prevents the risk of electric shock via continuous PE monitoring for earth connection faults
• Integrated Ethernet port and 4G modem for simple, easy integration with the existing network
• DC fault current detection with an externally connected current transformer • Emergency opener for safer removal and disconnection from the charge station
This new device is a successor to CC612, one of the first proven EV charge controllers to
the e-mobility market. Widely used by third party charge station manufacturers, and in Bender’s Chargespot Berlin charge station, this new upgraded device, is a welcome addition to any new or existing charge station manufacturer.
As the demand for compliant charging infrastructure increases, the EV charge market
needs a safe, secure, easy to integrate controller which is guaranteed to connect to a variety of back-end systems and host software.
Designed by the market leaders in electrical safety technology, this new device is eagerly
anticipated by charge station manufacturers and looks set to be designed into charge station projects world-wide.
As with previous generations, free software updates are still available. For more information contact Bender UK.
