Charging Station NS Current Sensing

Hello

Can the Charging Station NS be configured so that it only uses available capacity from the grid? Like the Zappi does with its CT sensor and correct configuration.

Currently I have a MP 2 5000 and a Cerbo. I want to add another MP in parallel but only have a 80A main fuse. So what I am thinking is to have both MPs configured to only take 32a from the grid while charing over night and allow the NS to take the left over capacity. Once the batteries are full then the NS can run at the full 32amps if the EV still needs charging.

The NS would be upstream of the MP and the MP only provides AC to protected loads so I don't have a CT sensor connected to the MP. I can add one though if its needed so the NS can see the load on the grid connection.

Ideally I would like a 100A fuse but my DNO has said that would cost £800+

Cheers

Yes, soon an update will be release containing this feature, probably next week.
