Understanding PEN Loss and PME Faults
- PEN Loss (Protective Earth & Neutral Loss): A dangerous fault in PME (Protective Multiple Earthing) systems where the neutral conductor is lost, potentially exposing users to hazardous voltages.
- PME Fault: When the earth-neutral link in a PME system fails, it can create a serious risk of electric shock.
The matt:e SP-EVCP-R actively detects these faults and automatically ensures safe operation, eliminating the need for earth electrodes while maintaining compliance with EV charging regulations.
