Test the safety and performance of a type 1, level 1 or level 2 electric vehicle ac charging stations (EVSEs) with the Fluke FEV100. This test adapter simulates the presence of an electrical vehicle, allowing you to conduct tests in combination with appropriate test instruments such as a digital multimeter or oscilloscope. Use the FEV100 to verify an EVSE is working properly after install and during periodic maintenance, or troubleshoot an EVSE if it is not delivering the appropriate charge.
Electrical safety
EVSE charging cables may become damaged over the course of use, increasing electric shock risks to users. Stay protected from and check risk of electric shock with the GFCI trip test. This function verifies the breaker of the EVSE is connected by detecting ground faults. Additionally, the PE grounding protection pre-test verifies that there is no presence of dangerous voltage at the ground terminal.
Simplicity and convenience
Perform a variety of tests including ground fault checks, insulation of wires, measuring voltage and duty cycle to see max current available for charging all in one adapter that safely integrates with the Fluke portfolio of test and measurement tools. There is no need to bring an electric vehicle onsite for EVSE troubleshooting: the adapter acts as an electric vehicle when connected to an EVSE for easy performance and maintenance testing.
