Default Amperage gen 3 wall charger

[ajrettke]

So I just got done installing my gen 3 charger. It’s on a 20A line/breaker and it defaulted to 60A. Is this normal? Or would it correct itself when actually under load. My concern is just for someone who doesn’t know their wire capacity and starts blowing breakers or worse…

Follow the commissioning procedure to tell the hpwc what breaker it's connected to

it defaults to 60amps but is supposed to be commissioned (the instructions will tell you to do that, starting on page 22):

The electrician completed installing my Gen3 WC today. And as noted in the previous post, once you connect to the WC, open up a browser to access the settings. Towards the bottom is the setting (Installation) where the max output current may be selected.

I did the commissioning...defaulted to 60A...oh well, I adjusted it to 20A so I won't blow my breaker!
