It can take a long time to get the necessary permits and to upgrade the
electrical grid. Make sure the plan includes the possibility for these
delays.
3.2. Permits
The installation of a HVC 450 kW E-Bus Charger will require a number of permits, depending
on national and local laws. This section lists a number of points of attention.
3.2.1. Power connection
The HVC 450 kW E-Bus Charger requires high current (480 V AC 576 A) connections. A
normal domestic or small business power connection is not sufficient.
Measure, check and report the position of the cables between the power distribution board
and the Power Cabinet and the cables between the Power Cabinet and the ACS Control
Module.
Contact your electricity retailer and/or grid owner if a grid upgrade is required. Ask about the
work that is needed to upgrade the connection to meet the requirements described in section
Electrical installation on Page 33.
3.2.2. Construction permit
The installation of the HVC 450 kW E-Bus Charger requires the following construction work:
A solid base.
Work permit.
Cable conduits for cables between the power distribution board and the Power
Cabinet. Usually these cable conduits are installed below ground.
Cable conduits for cables between the Power Cabinet and ACS Control Module.
Parking spaces for the bus.
Signs on the road or next to the road to position the bus.
Contact your local government to obtain information about the necessary permits.
3.2.3. Internet access
The HVC 450 kW E-Bus Charger requires a connection to the internet. This connection is
used for serviceability, remote access by ABB Service department.
There are two options for the internet connection:
Wireless, which requires coverage to a 3G network at the location. This is the preferred
connection. A 3G modem with active SIM card is included with the HVC 450 kW E-Bus
Charger (a customer SIM card is not required).
Ethernet (RJ45). If there is no 3G signal available, a wired internet connection must be
available at the location. For this option, contact ABB Sales department (see Contact
information on Page 13 for contact details).
