Well quite a lot – So if you’re planning an EV Charging installation, it is worthwhile engaging an EV Charging expert to design your project. EV Distribution boards are designed to operate under much higher loading compared to a standard Distribution board. So if you’re thinking of using a standard DB to connect multiple chargers, it may not be rated to the required thermal capacity to do it. Why is that important? EV DB’s have more airflow around the circuit breakers to minimise the risk of electrical fire.

Electrify EV design and install a range of EV Distribution Boards which are suitable for indoor and outdoor locations and are designed to meet BCA J9D4 requirements. Importantly our EVDBs are designed and verified to the Australian Standard AS/NZS 61439.2. The EVDBs have been developed in consultation with Australia’s Electric Vehicle Council.

Our EVDBs are available in Gloss Green finish, X15 Orange, N42 Grey and natural Stainless Steel 316 finish.

EVDBs feature a separate section of the board for enclosure of the Load Management System and power metering equipment.

BCA J9D4 features:

• Sized to support parallel operation of 24 x EV chargers
• DIN-rail spaces for future installation of 24x36mm wide kWh meters
• Option to have Load Management System inside the EV DB or within a separate enclosure
• Comes with all necessary labels indicated in J9D4

Australian Standards AS/NZS 61439.1 and 61439.2 Compliance:

• Design verified to all the relevant clauses within AS/NZS 61439.1&2 standard
• Our tested configuration covers parallel loading on all the outgoing circuits thereby covering the most onerous performance arrangement and be able to give maximum available power to each connected charger
• QR code on each DB for quick access to documentation: as built drawings, routine test report, data sheets
