Victron EV Charging Station

This page shows the nightly version. Switch to the release version.

Enter the host of the charger (not the GX device) and ensure that the charger is in manual mode.

To enable 1P/3P phase switching a hardware modification is required: the 4P contactor must be replaced with 2×2P contactors. The first contactor switches L1+N, the second switches L2+L3 and is controlled by the second relay on the PCB. Register 5100 must be set to 1 to enable phase switching. More info

Supported features

  • 1P/3P: Automatic phase switching. Useful for solar surplus charging.
  • Built-in meter: Support for an integrated meter.
  • Dimmable: Power consumption can be reduced (e.g. §14a EnWG). See External Control.
