SPECIAL feature:
In case of using the SMART PORTABLE CHARGER(s) on 2 or more different places (e.g. you have 2 houses) it is possible to install the 3FD-3 WIRELESS DYNAMIC EV CHARGING UNITS on 2 or more different locations (e.g. 2 houses) with different main fuses and then just move/use the same SMART PORTABLE CHARGER on those different locations and have everywhere safe wireless FUSE protection DYNAMIC charging. The SMART PORTABLE CHARGER connects AUTOMATICALLY to the 3FD-3 unit at every location.
Cable properties * :
- Resistant to microbes, oil, dust and water
- Special cable design for long service life
- Flexible at low temperatures (temp. range: -25°C to 80°C)
- Withstands high mechanical stress, in particular abrasion and sliding demands
[*] Applies to the insulated cable part only, not the electronics

Modbus TCP/IP communication:
Smart portable chargers support Modbus TCP/IP communication protocol, which enables third party home automation systems to monitor and control each portable charger, connected to local Wi-Fi network. Modbus MASTER device can read real time charging power, current, voltage and charging energy information from portable charger as well as set the charging current. Required Metron MODBUS TCP/IP REGISTER TABLE is available for download here: Metron MODBUS TCP/IP REGISTER TABLE
Over-the-air (OTA) software update:
OTA update can be performed by any user via internet, using Metron Device Access application. The update process is fully automated and requires portable charger to have internet access via Wi-Fi.
NOTE: Older versions of our smart portable chargers can also be locally upgraded via Wi-Fi and gain all the latest features. Please contact us for further instructions.
Green production
All our products are produced in a carbon neutral way by using “Sustainable energy cycle” method. Production plant where we make charging cables and portable charging stations is the first fully sustainable production facility for EV charging cables. All energy, needed for the heating and cooling of the building, production process and for transportation of goods and employees (except deliveries of heavy materials by trucks), is produced by 2 photovoltaic power plants and stored in 4 storage batteries. Almost all of the raw materials we use (cables, plugs) are produced in EU, to shorten supply routes and support local economy. Buying our products helps developing sustainable economy.
Compatibility
Beside European versions of Tesla Model S, Model X, Model Y and Model 3 electric vehicles this portable charger is also compatible with all other electric vehicles equipped with Type 2 charging sockets.

Tesla Model 3 and Model Y note:
Tesla Model 3 vehicle on-board charger is phase sequence sensitive, what means that the phases have to be in a proper sequence 1-2-3 at wall socket. If they are not, the car will not charge. To check phases and phase sequence you can use our PHASE TESTER device.
What is RCD and how does it work?
RCD is an acronym for Residual Current Device – sometimes it can be called also Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker or Safety Switch. Its purpose is to prevent you from getting a fatal electric shock if you touch live part, such as a bare copper wire under high voltage. RCDs offer a level of personal protection that ordinary fuses/circuit-breakers cannot provide. RCD constantly monitors the electric current flowing through one or more circuits which it protects. If it detects electricity flowing down an unintended path, such as through a person who has touched a live part, the RCD will switch the circuit off very quickly, significantly reducing the risk of death or serious injury.
PC04YT+ is equipped with Metron RCD Type B device called RCDB1-316CEE which represents maximum possible level of personal protection as it protects users from AC, pulsating DC, pure DC and also high frequency AC leakage currents. In order to ensure “BOXLESS” design of PC05T portable charger RCD is packed inside 3-phase 16A CEE plug itself what eliminates even the smallest unsafe section found on other portable chargers where there is at least 30cm of unprotected cable between wall plug and “bulky” in cable control box.
