How It Works
Dynamic charging allows your charger to modulate the amount of charging output based of your home usage. This requires communication to be set up between the Tap, charger, and the cloud based on the type of dynamic charging that best fits your needs.
The Tap is in constant monitoring of the use of electricity around the household, and can sense when the use of the charger is causing the limit to go over capacity and can change the charge so it stays right below the limit. It calculates this difference and sends that as a message to the charger or vehicle so it can change the amount of charge available. Learn more about how dynamic charging works here.
Compatible Systems
Make sure to enable dynamic charging connection on the Tap’s web portal. Tutorial can be found here. If you have a Tesla vehicle, select “Tesla” below. Otherwise, if you have a non-Tesla vehicle and a Wallbox or Grizzl-E charger, select those links below.
Troubleshooting
OCPP Connected but not charging?
Try to unplug and plug back the charger.
Check the status page on the Tap web portal to see if dynamic charging is connected
This might be a more nuanced issue where you can contact us with questions.
How to disconnect OCPP?
Go through the setup on the Tap web portal, one select charger, and then hit None for the connection type. The same can be said for the charger/vehicel side, navigate to OCPP to API connection and reset or turn it off.
