Fluke FEV300 with Type 2 Connector -| Test Adapter for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

The FEV300 Test Adapter Kit with Type 2 Connector is an essential tool for testing the function and safety of Mode 3 AC charging stations. It allows technicians to conduct tests in accordance with IEC/EN 61851-1 and IEC/HD 60364-7-722 using installation testers, like Fluke 1664 FC and ScopeMeter® from the Fluke 120B Series. This all-in-one adapter simplifies the process of connecting and testing charging stations, as it imitates an electric vehicle thus eliminating the need to bring an EV onsite.

When connected to a Type 2 socket outlet or vehicle connector, it enables technicians to perform ground fault checks, insulation of wires, measuring voltage and duty cycle – all necessary steps that help evaluate max current available for charging. The FEV300 also comes with three LED lamps which indicate separate phases; this makes it easier to check if voltage is present while conducting tests.

Overall, this adapter kit provides all necessary tools and functions needed to ensure function and safety of Mode 3 AC charging stations per industry standards. It also eliminates a number of steps required for troubleshooting by acting as an electric vehicle during a charging cycle; this way technicians can quickly continue without unnecessary delays.

Features and functions

Suitable to vehicle charging stations: With charging mode 3

• Fits to charging stations: With EV socket-outlet type 2 and EV connectors for type 2 and type 1
• PE Pre-Test: With this safety feature the PE conductor will be tested for possible presence of dangerous voltage against earth
• Proximity Pilot (PP) state “Cable Simulation”: With PP State rotary switch the adapter can simulate various current capabilities of charging cables.
• Control Pilot (CP) state “Vehicle Simulation”: With CP State rotary switch selector all charging states can be simulated.
• Separate phase indication by three LED lamps for easy check if voltage is present at the charging output.
• Measuring terminals L1, L2, L3, N and PE: To connect test device like installation tester to perform safety and functional tests.
• Compatibility: Integrates into Fluke portfolio of test and measurement tools, by allowing direct connection through FEV measurement terminals.
• The Fluke 1664 FC allows safety measurements via the measuring terminals like:
  • earth bond
  • insulation
  • loop/line impedance
  • RCD trip test
• Simulation of CP error state “E”
• Simulation of PE error state “F” (Earth fault)
• Terminals for CP signal output: To check communication between adapter (simulated electrical vehicle) and charging station. This can be measured by a ScopeMeter® or multimeter. The voltage level defines the charging modes and the duty cycle of this PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal defines the maximum allowable charging current.
• IP 54 rating: Dust and splashing water protected
