MAINTENANCE
The VMEV electric vehicle charger has been designed to operate under normal working
conditions and usually does not require any special maintenance during its lifetime.
Vynco recommends the following checks to ensure the long-term operation of the
VMEV Charger and safety of the users.
INTERVAL MAINTENANCE ACTION
At every charge Visual check that the housing is not
damaged, cracked or broken.
If the housing is damaged, contact
your installer for a safety check
before using.
Check that the blue LED light is on. Check that the power is on to the
VMEV Charger:
- Isolator is turned on
- Check that the MCB and RCCB
at the switchboard are both on
(levers up).
Every 6 months Clean the charger with a damp cloth
(not wet) to remove any dirt, grime and
cobwebs.
Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents to clean the VMEV
Charger as these may damage
the plastic housing.
Press the test button on the RCCB at
the switchboard. The RCCB should trip
and disconnect the power to the VMEV
Charger.
Do not use the charger if the
RCCB does not trip. Contact your
installer for a safety check.
Yearly Commercial installations may require
that the VMEV Charger is tested and
tagged every 12 months.
See the Worksafe NZ EV Charging
Safety Guidelines for details or
