We know that all homes, shared housing and commercial properties have limited power. This is why we created Zaptec Sense. It helps you utilise your power in the smartest possible way, while also protecting your circuit breakers. Charge as many electric vehicles as possible, as quickly as possible using the power available.
Top three advantages of Zaptec Sense
Lower electricity bills by avoiding expensive electricity consumption peaks
Automatically adjusts in line with power consumption at the premises
Avoid overloading and tripping circuit breakers when charging your vehicle
Use your power more sensibly
Zaptec Sense automatically adjusts the charging speed in your building. When you use little power, the charging speed increases, allowing you to charge your vehicle even more quickly, even charging multiple vehicles at once. If the power consumption is high, Zaptec Sense will reduce the power used for electric vehicle charging to avoid overloading and power outages.
Zaptec Sense ensures even more power for electric vehicle charging than normal. You can charge more quickly and you can charge multiple vehicles at the same time without tripping the circuit breaker, fully automatically.
Overview of Zaptec Sense
Lower electricity bills
Zaptec Sense allows you to adjust the output of your charging system, ensuring that you can avoid expensive power consumption peaks.
Utilises all available power
Charging adjusts automatically in line with power consumption at the premises.
Charge multiple electric vehicles, more quickly
Charge as many electric vehicles as possible, as quickly as possible, using the power available.
Avoid high costs
Zaptec Sense allows you to avoid expensive costs for increased power usage.
Avoid tripping circuit breakers
Avoid overloading and tripping circuit breakers when charging your vehicle.
Charging without Zaptec Sense
If there is little power available in the building, you could be at risk of the circuit breaker tripping. An electrician would reduce charging station output to avoid power outages. This means that your circuit breaker will not trip while you are charging your electric vehicle, but it also means that you will not be utilising the available power.
Charging with Zaptec Sense
With Zaptec Sense, you will have the opportunity to utilise all available power at the premises. This means quicker charging, and you can charge multiple electric vehicles at the same time.
Take control of your power consumption
Zaptec Sense allows you to charge your vehicle as quickly as possible, while also avoiding tripping circuit breakers when you are using power for something else at the same time. Zaptec Sense reads the overall power consumption and adapts electric vehicle charging accordingly.
Where does Zaptec Sense work?
At cabins and detached houses, in commercial buildings and in co-ownership properties, housing associations and apartments.
FAQ
How does Zaptec Sense work?
- Zaptec Sense will retrieve information about your power consumption
- Zaptec Sense will then report on your power consumption
- Charging is then adjusted automatically in accordance with the consumption at the premises
What is Zaptec Sense?
Zaptec Sense measures the power consumption at the premises and automatically adjusts the charging speed depending on the power available. Zaptec Sense understands the overall power consumption and adapts electric vehicle charging accordingly. When the power consumption at the premises is low, Zaptec Sense will automatically ensure that the charging speed is increased and vice versa.
Where can Zaptec Sense be used?
Zaptec Sense has been designed to work in all houses and buildings. It can be used in detached houses, cabins and apartment buildings.
What is dynamic load balancing?
This is charging that adapts to the building. Zaptec Sense understands the overall power consumption of the rest of the premises and adapts electric vehicle charging accordingly. If the building consumes a lot of power, for example during the evening when everyone is cooking at the same time, the electric vehicle system understands this and takes the power consumption into account, before accelerating charging speeds when people are finished in the kitchen.
What is dynamic output limitation?
This means that the charging system supplies power to the vehicles when the general consumption at the building drops, so that charging is never added to the general power consumption of the building. You can therefore be confident that your network charge will never be affected by power consumption for electric vehicle charging. This technology helps you reduce your electricity bills, as you avoid higher network tariffs resulting from electric vehicle charging.
What is included in the box?
The box contains Zaptec Sense, a communication cable, tape/magnet, and the installation manual.
Can I install Zaptec Sense myself?
Yes, you can easily install Zaptec Sense yourself if you live in a detached house or even at your cabin (Norway only). For other countries and larger charging systems, such as those used for housing associations and apartments, co-ownership properties, and commercial buildings, the installation must be performed by an electrician.
Where can I buy Zaptec Sense?
Zaptec Sense will be available to buy everywhere you can normally buy Zaptec products.
Does it depend on internet connection?
Yes, Zaptec Sense is dependent on internet connection. Sense HAN for Norwegian marked has wifi, while Zaptec Sense generic has wifi or ethernet for internet connection.
