Common problems
Device not charging or slow charging
Ensure you are using an original USB-C cable or a cable specifically certified for the required charging protocol.
Earth continuity issues after installation
If replacing a socket, you must connect the earth wires (PE) together using a junction block to maintain continuity for the entire circuit.
Equipment damage during testing
Ensure the device is completely disconnected from the circuit (L and N) before performing an insulation resistance test.
Before use
- Verify installation is performed by a qualified professional.
- Ensure the circuit is disconnected (L and N) before starting installation.
- Strip wires to 7-9 mm.
- Tighten terminal screws to 0.5 Nm.
- Ensure a compatible frame is available for the final assembly.
- Verify earth wire (PE) continuity is maintained.
