    Excellent video. And brings ESV (Swedish Elsäkerhetsverket) to shame regarding Easee. ESV is the Swedish electricity safety government agency that states that Easee does not comply with rules and regulations regarding AC/DC RCD. They also state that the Easee home should be withdrawn from the market...

      I am here for the same reason. If ESV failed to prove their ground - I guess they can expect case against them from Easee. My only complain for Easee charger so far is lucking of local control API.

      Because it does not comply to the standards that Easee claim they are meeting. They are also calming to meet different standards that counters each other. You pick one standard and meet everyone of the points or exceed them, if you come up with a better solution it's fine but it has to exceed the current points set in the standard.
      But like everyone else you are hung up on the rcd while the bigger problem is the EMC protection.
      They are also claiming to meet a slam standard but delivers no protocol from third party to prove it
      On a side note, the RCD is as I understood it in Easee built up of different "relays" for the phases with no physical connection. Meaning the trip times between phases will warry and they will not trip at the same time or even may not trip at all. The tester only test on phase at a time and no normal electrician has a 3 phase tester so it's not tested in the field.
      I have not seen the easee my self so this is just what I reed!!!

    I am here due to the test by Swedish Elsäkerhetsverket. So undoubtably everything going 100% in Easee's favors.
    I also hear that “click”, which means that there is a mechanical fully isolated switch that breaks the circuit.
    Anyone that have more information from the Swedish Elsäkerhetsverket?

    How are these for testing through the parameters of the larger chargepoints with the rate controls. Having a nightmare at the minute trying to test some 100a dualport project ev chargepoints my non metrel tester wouldn’t test them as kept taking out thevparameters and putting into error. Tried different branded meters and having similar issues. With megger saying it’s a nightmare not having a bypass from the parameters just for testing Rcd at charge port. But I want a new reliable tester that I won’t have similar issues. As testing parameters back to factory settings and then setting up after is a pain in bum. But only put in some 200a

      @@efixx A popular brand is Norwegian Easee. But they are now being criticized by the Swedish Electrical Safety Authority as three of their boxes (Home, Charge and Ready) lack a built-in ground-fault circuit breaker and do not meet the requirements for DC protection - even though the user manual says otherwise. The overvoltage tests that the Swedish Electrical Safety Authority carried out on the Home model were also not passed. Charge and Ready have not been tested, but they should have the same construction as Home.
      Now the Swedish Electrical Safety Authority wants Easee to respond to the criticism they have made and what they will do about it, by February 13 at the latest
