Possible Causes

Detected rise in earth potential on PME system, Faulty PEN fault detection module in Rolec charger, Incorrect earthing arrangement configuration in settings, Loose neutral/earth link in supply (where applicable by design)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: PEN/PME faults can create dangerous touch voltages. Do not bypass or disable PEN fault protection.

  • Confirm earthing arrangement: Verify that the charger is configured for the correct earthing system (PME, TT, etc.) as per the Rolec installation manual and local regulations.
  • Check supply integrity: Have an electrician test the supply neutral and earth at the origin. Any instability or high potential difference must be resolved by the DNO or a qualified electrician.
  • Inspect PEN fault module: With power isolated, check the Rolec PEN fault detection module and its connectors for damage or loose wiring. Some modules have status LEDs—refer to Rolec documentation.
  • Power‑cycle and retest: After confirming wiring and configuration, reboot the charger. If E06 clears temporarily and returns, the module may be oversensitive or failing.
  • Replace module if necessary: If supply tests are normal but E06 persists, replace the PEN fault detection module with the correct Rolec‑approved part.
