A customized ABB Kabeldon distribution board powers electric cars in Vaasa’s Toriparkki parking garage
Finland
Challenge
Finnish parking garage, Vaasan Toripysäköinti Oy has updated its electric car charging points in collaboration with the electricity company Vaasan Sähkö.
Solution
At Vaasan Sähkö’s request, Ravera installed one 50 kW fast DC charger and four 22 kW double AC chargers in Vaasa’s market square parking garage. In addition to the chargers themselves, Ravera’s task included drawing two cables from the medium voltage transformer room on the top level of the parking garage to the ABB Kabeldon distribution board.
Outcome
This Kabeldon distribution board was custom-made by ABB to fit this purpose and to meet the high power requirement. Because the distribution board is in a public space, its design needs to endure a certain amount of vandalism. The board is also equipped with appropriate locks. It was also possible to equip the board with fuse switch modules and sufficient fuses during assembly
