Yes, but your Andersen charger cannot detect whether the electricity is coming from your solar panels, home battery or the grid. Because of this, your home battery settings may affect how your EV charges. Please make us aware during the survey process if your property has battery storage, as our team may be able to advise on the most suitable setup before installation.
- Andersen chargers monitor available electricity, but they cannot identify the original source of that electricity.
- If your home battery is set to discharge while your EV is plugged in, your charger may draw power from the battery.
- This could drain your home battery faster than expected.
- To avoid this, you may need to adjust your battery settings so it does not discharge during EV charging sessions.
- If you are having an Andersen installation, please make us aware during the survey process if you have home battery storage.
- Our team may be able to advise on the most suitable setup.
- If you are using a third-party electrician, you should make them aware of your home battery system before installation.
