Charge Amps Dawn ISO15118 Module for Electric Vehicle Charging

The Charge Amps Dawn ISO15118 module is a high-performance communication component engineered to upgrade electric vehicle charging stations with advanced connectivity features. By implementing the ISO15118 standard, this module serves as the critical link between the vehicle and the charging infrastructure, enabling sophisticated data exchange protocols that are essential for modern smart charging environments.

Advantages

This module significantly enhances the functionality of charging stations by supporting Plug & Charge technology, which allows for an automated and seamless authentication process as soon as the cable is connected. Furthermore, it provides the necessary infrastructure for bidirectional power transfer, paving the way for vehicle-to-grid applications. The integration of this module ensures that charging stations remain future-proof, reliable, and capable of handling complex communication requirements between the electric vehicle and the power grid.

Suitable for

• Public and private electric vehicle charging stations
• Smart grid integration projects
• Facilities requiring Plug & Charge authentication
• Bidirectional power transfer and vehicle-to-grid setups

When it may not be suitable

This module is not intended for use in charging stations that do not support the ISO15118 communication protocol or lack the necessary hardware architecture to interface with this component. It is also not suitable for basic, non-smart charging units that do not require advanced data exchange or automated authentication features.

Key specifications

• Supports ISO15118 communication standard
• Enables Plug & Charge functionality
• Facilitates bidirectional power transfer
• Optimized for seamless EV-to-infrastructure data exchange

How to use

The installation of the Charge Amps Dawn ISO15118 module should be performed by a certified electrician or a qualified technician familiar with electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The module must be integrated into the internal control board of the compatible charging station according to the manufacturer's technical documentation. Once installed, the system should be configured via the station's management software to enable the specific ISO15118 features required for the site.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility with your specific charging station model
