EV Charging Solutions

Q: How long does it take to charge an electric car on a 22 kW AC charger vs a 120 kW DC charger?

A 22 kW AC charger adds approx. 100–120 km of range per hour (ideal for 3–4 hour office/mall parking). A 120 kW DC fast charger charges an EV battery from 10% to 80% in just 20 to 30 minutes.

Engineering & Build Highlights

Built-in 6mA DC residual direct current detecting device (RDC-DD) eliminates the need for expensive external Type B RCDs
Open-PEN conductor fault protection conforms to BS 7671 Section 722 without requiring separate earth rods on PME supplies
Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB): throttles charging speed automatically to prevent tripping the building main transformer
OCPP 1.6J / 2.0.1 compliant: connects with M-Pesa mobile payment platforms and third-party EV charging network operators
Solar EV charging integration: charges vehicles exclusively from surplus rooftop solar power generation
RFID card authentication and smartphone app control with automated billing and session reporting

Target Applications & Sectors

Commercial shopping malls & office parking complexesElectric bus, delivery van & taxi fleet charging depotsHighway service stations & rest stops across KenyaResidential apartment blocks & private residential villasHotel resorts & hospitality valet parking amenitiesCorporate headquarters employee vehicle charging bays

On PME (TN-C-S) utility grids, a broken neutral wire can energize the vehicle metal chassis to 230V, creating a deadly electrocution hazard. Open-PEN protection detects supply unbalance and instantly isolates all phases, neutral, and earth in < 4 seconds.

A 22 kW AC charger adds approx. 100–120 km of range per hour (ideal for 3–4 hour office/mall parking). A 120 kW DC fast charger charges an EV battery from 10% to 80% in just 20 to 30 minutes.
