Smart Charging regulations 2021

The Electric Vehicle Smart Charge Point (EVSCP) regulations state that all chargers must come preconfigured with off–peak charging. The VCHRGD Seven is programmed to charge between 01:00hrs – 05:00hrs.  This programming can be changed or opted- out-of, upon first use. 

All domestic chargers are also required to apply a 0-600 second randomised delay to the start of every charging session. This will be applied automatically by the VCHRGD Seven charger. You can opt to override the delay and charge immediately if you prefer.
