Possible Causes

Drifted current transformer calibration, Firmware bug affecting metering, Incorrect phase configuration, Faulty metering IC on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Note: This affects billing/monitoring but not basic charging safety.

  • Verify configuration: Ensure the charger is configured for the correct number of phases and supply type in the app.
  • Compare over time: Use a calibrated external meter to log energy over several full charges and quantify the error.
  • Update firmware: Install the latest firmware, as metering corrections are sometimes included.
  • Factory reset and recalibrate: If supported, perform a factory reset and any available calibration procedure.
  • Replace control board: If large errors persist, the metering IC or CTs may be faulty; replace the control board or CT assembly.
