Possible Causes
Supply voltage above EVSE specification, Loose neutral or phase connection at terminal block, Faulty input voltage sensing circuit on main PCB, Incorrect grid configuration (e.g., 3-phase wired as single-phase)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Only qualified persons should measure mains voltage inside the charger.
- Check grid supply: Using a calibrated multimeter, verify line-to-neutral and line-to-line voltages at the main distribution board. Compare with the NewMotion charger’s rated input (e.g., 230/400 V).
- Inspect terminal block: With power isolated, open the charger and check that L1/L2/L3 and N are correctly landed and firmly tightened on the internal terminal block. Look for discoloration or heat damage.
- Confirm configuration: Ensure the charger is configured in software (installer menu or app) for the correct supply type (single-phase vs three-phase). A mismatch can trigger E004.
- Check neutral integrity: A floating or loose neutral can cause high phase-to-neutral voltages. Tighten neutral connections and inspect the neutral bar in the distribution board.
- Monitor voltage: If the supply voltage is genuinely too high, contact your utility provider or an electrician. Do not attempt to modify the grid supply yourself.
- PCB fault: If measured voltages are normal but E004 persists, the voltage sensing circuit on the main control PCB may be faulty and require replacement.
