- Detailed video covering the Nexon EV Home charging setup process. This video will help you understand how the setup is done, by whom is it done and how do they do it in apartments.
You get the following things free with the car
- Charging Unit
- Portable Charging Cable
The Tata power folks who carry out the installation, will cover the following things
- Electric wiring setup from your power supply meter to your parking lot.
- Safety checks to ensure that the load, voltage is proper.
- Post installation, they will do a final check to see if the setup works.
Hope this video helps you in understanding the process of charging the Nexon EV at home.
Very helpful video . Nicely explain - thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Is there any method to limit the current drawn by Nexon during charging?
I don't think so. Please check with Tata Customer care as that could also void the warranty if you do not follow the standard setup.
Very nice video. Thanks for making it
Thanks for the appreciation.
Hey did you ever face an issue whrere you've kept your vehicle on charge overnight and someone tried to just damage the charging cable? I am asking because people in general have a tendency for vandalism.
Not me, because my apartment has many cctv installed. However, a friends car charging cable was cut at night. He lives in a standalone house where he parks his vehicle on the road.
Can i charge it in a normal socket at some public place ?
As long as the socket is of 16A, it will charge.
So lets say you go to some relatives place and you need to charge your car. In this case, if they have access to a 16A socket outside, you can plug the charging cable there. It should have proper grounding though.
What's the power load permitted by your power supplier? If the permitted power load is 2.74 KW/hr will it be fine or additional power is to be requested from the power supplier?
The power load permitted by my supplier is 4Kw. Since the charger is 3.3 Kw, I think you might need additional power from the supplier.
Check with Tata Folks for detailed info.
My home meter is at 5th floor, so wire Tata is providing will not be enough. And my parking is at -3 , as of now no connection at -3. So how much it will cost me ?
Even in an apartment, home meter should be somewhere at the ground floor. I think you are mistaken or probably you are right too.
from 5th floor to -3 would be around 8 floors in total. That's around 80 feet of wire. I think it'll quite costly for you. Just the wire might cost 10-15k.
What is the length of charging cable? Yellow plus the black portion?
Is 3 phase supply needed for this or it will work for single phase supply also?
It works with single phase as well, as long as the overall load provided by your electricity provider is good.
For example, I have a single phase connection with max load of 4KW. I mostly charge my car at night. During night time, sometimes 2 AC's are operating in parallel as well. Sometimes in the morning, dishwasher and washing machine is working in parallel when the car is charging. I have not faced any load issues.
For the other 7.2KW charger, you need to increase your load by contacting your electricity provided. But for this portable charger, no need to do that.
@@TheGlovesMan got it thanks
Nicely explained 👍
Thanks for valuable information but charging setup is free or chargebl?
Tata motors will do the installation for free when you purchase the car. So the setup is free.
Thanks for the information shared!! How much they charged for ur wire and is it re usable
Reusable in the sense I'm staying in rented apartment if im moving out from there I can re use it!!?? Nd if I want to extend the wire how it'll be
Yes, you can re-use it. Upto 15 metres of cable is provided free from Tata along with the charging unit. For any additional wire, you will have to pay a certain amount. I think it's 150rs to 300rs per metre.
When moving out to a separate place, you can call the Tata Power guys to remove the wire and the charging unit and install it at a different place.
Please note that the free setup is only one time. For relocation, you might have to pay additional charges.
So what is the source of electricity ? Does the electricity bill comes separately for you??
The source of electricity is from the same meter that supplies electricity to my house. There's no separate bill as such. The units that get consumed for charging, get added to my electricity bill.
However, one can opt for a green meter that gets separately installed for EV charging only. It has different rates and you cannot plug any other devices in it.
What to do if parking space is open . Spwcially during rainy season. Is it safe to charge ??
I think you can clarify with Tata Motors about that.
In some instances while on the highway, I had to charge the car in heavy rainfall. I used a plastic cover to cover up the gun with some cellotape. Didn't observe any major issues.
In our apartment complex , 3bhk get closed parking slots underground but 2bhk owners have open parking slots. So how should those who have open parking manage the charging
For open parking, only if you have a proper wall nearby, you'll be able to properly attach the charger. You'll also have to ensure that it's secure from rainfall somehow. I think Tata customer care will be able to answer your question in a better manner. In my society, people have done this in open parking as well, but they had a wall nearby where they've added a small cover to protect it from rainfall.
@@TheGlovesMan Thanks
How many hours required for a full battery charge, kept at home ?
Hello, with a 3.3 Kw charger, it takes anywhere between 8hours 30mins to 9 hours for charging at home. This is the standard charger provided with the car.
How much electricity does it cost you per month on average?
Hi Harjagit,
I am no sure of the exact units consumed for a full charge.
But the following numbers might help you understand some details
My electricity bill before getting the EV used to be around Rs 2500 or Rs.2700
After using it to charge my EV, it's Rs.4000
My usage is:
Daily use of 3-4 kms
Every week, I go out for 200 or 250kms drive..
So you can say, Rs.1500 for 1000 kms... that's around Rs.1.5 per km. Hope his helps.
क्या 2kw के कनेक्शन से चार्ज हो जाएगी या लोड बढ़वाना पड़ेगा ।चार्जिंग करंट कितने amp होगी नार्मल चार्ज में।
Load Badhwana padega. Jo tata ka charger hai, uska rated input 3.3Kw hai. Toh agar aap badhwa lo, toh accha hoga
What happens in case electricity goes and comes back? Especially in case of 7.2 kWh charger
Your car would stop charging and resume again when the power is back.
Setup charges are extra or included in the car price itself?
They are included in the car price itself. They will do it for free. The free wire included in the setup is of 10 metres. If you're parking is a bit far from the electricity meter (more than 10m), then you'll have to pay extra for the extra wire they use.
Ghar ka load kitna hona chahiye in both the case. 7.2kw and 3.3 kw
Aur kya in dono ke liye hi alag connect liya ja sakta hai?
3.3 kw ke lie kitna load hona chahie woh toh nahi pata.
Mere ghar ka load is 4kw, uspe maine 3.3kw ka charger laya hai. Gadi charge karte waqt, ghar ki baaki cheeze bhi chalata hoon (Dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, etc). Aaj tuk koi load ka issue nahi aaya.
7.2 kw charger ke lie load badhana padta hai. Tata ke suggestion ke hisab se, minimum 10Kw la load chahie.
@@TheGlovesMan okay thank you, ek question aur. Kya ek alag se connection liya ja sakta hai agar Ghar ka load nahin badwaana ho toh?
0% se 100 % electricity bill kitna aa tha hai
Never actually checked that. But log bolte hai ki 30 units electricity consume hoti hai.
So agar apka multiplier is 7rs per unit. It will require 210rs. Agar 10rs ka rate hai, toh 300.
What do in apartment? Especially when we have underground parking space but meter is on the ground floor ??
Pls ans
Hey Jayesh, I live in an apartment itself. My parking is on the upper floor and meter is on the ground floor.
TATA Motors team will do the wiring for you from your meter to your parking space. The distance in my case was around 10 car parkings apart. You get some wire free with the car, for additional length they will charge you.
But apartment or home, they will do the wiring for you.
Can I charge tata tiago with 3.3 kWh charger on single phase connection with load of 3kW?
I doubt if that will work. But you can get a confirmation from the Tata Customer Care team.
Usually, your home appliances consume some amount of the load, so adding a car charger to it will require more load for your connection.
Cost of charging equipment??
The charging equipment is provided free of cost by the manufacturer.
What was you metre connected load?
4KW. Works fine with this slow charger.
Even if I have heavy appliances like washing machine and dish washer running in my house.
@@TheGlovesMan Hey thanks for the info! 👍
@@TheGlovesMan Can I charge my car and run 2 ACs of 1.5 Ton at the same time?
Kitni time leta hai charge hone mai 100% with ac on &/off
Charging ke waqt Gadi band rakhni hoti hai aur AC bhi band.
Slow charger pe, 0-100percent ke lie almost 8 - 9 hours lagte hai. Fast charger pe takreeban 1 ghante me charge ho jati hai full.
@@TheGlovesMan ok thanks mere parking area mai 200 250 voltage ata hai 16a charger mai kitna wqt lagta hai
Thanks for the info bro.
Can we use the fast charger at home?
The other version of the AC charger that you get is of 7.2KW which is not very fast. It will reduce the overall charging time by 50%. So if the normal charger takes 9 hours, that will charge your car in 4 to 5 hours.
..
The fast chargers installed at hotels/showrooms are DC chargers. They can charge really fast in like 1hour or 1.5 hours. But that's too expensive to be setup at home.
Overuse of fast charge will affect the battery life
MCB aur RCBO kitne Ampere ke lage h ?
MCB dekh ke batata hoon. Yeh RCBO kya hota hai?
He meant Rccb.
Jo log choti choti society mai rahte hai jinke paas Ghar ke pass parking ki jagah nahi hoti ohh log kaise charge karenge
Yaar unke lie thoda problem hi hai.
Ek toh society wale ek common charger bitha le jispe cars/bikes charge ho paaye ya fir bahar Public chargers pe hi charge karna hoga.
Bhai kitna kw hona chye
4Kw ka load is fine. Mere idhar bhi 4Kw ka load hai.
Car charging ke saath, ghar ke mostly bahut appliances bhi chal jaate hai. Kabhi kabhi dishwasher aur washing machine bhi chalu rehte hai but no issues on load so far.
Sir charging krne kr bad bhi hu nh Raha charge
HV Battery ka issue Hoga. Please check the car at the TATA service center.
कोई हारामि wire काट के जा सकता है। फायर सेफ्टी? अगर आग लग गई तो?
Mere friend ke saath hua hai yeh. Uske Bike ka charging cable kisine kaat diya tha.
CCTV lagana must hai parking me agar aap electric car ya bike leri ho.
Normal switch pe charge nhi kr sakte kya?
16A ke normal switch pe kar sakte ho agar earthing vagera sab sahi ho toh.
Agar earthing proper na ho, toh charging cable pe jo unit hai uspe lights alag aate hai.
Ghar me jo fridge ka switch hota hai, uska earthing usually sabse proper hota hai.
During overnight charging. If the vehicle is left plugged in even after the charging 100% does the charger cut of the electric flow on its own. Or does it keep charging the vehicle, also can start / stop the charging remotely thru the app if i just leave the vehicle plugged in.
Basically i m just worried about the battery being damaged due to overcharging
There's an inbuilt mechanism to prevent overcharging. It automatically cut's off the charging when the vehicle reaches 100% charging.
You cannot force-stop the charging remotely through the app. The app just shows the charging status and notifies you when the charging has reached 100%.
Do not worry about the battery being damaged due to overcharging.
You can use a analog timer and relay setup to limited charging time
Sir normal 16amphere plug mai charge nei hoga ?
Yes, usme bhi hota hai. Yeh tata power ka unit lagane se pehle maine ek normal meterbox me sirf anchor ka 16A ka socket lagaya tha. Mai uske lie bhi ek video banaunga.
Usme bhi same way se charge hota hai. Sirf earthing proper hai kya check kar lena.
Earthing achha hai to charge hoga
I have a 5 kw meter single phase and i am planning to buy nexon ev. I am staying in an apartment ...is this ok for charging ev...pls guide
What about the charging system if I shift my home?
You can shift that as well. It's not a complex task. I believe TATA service station should help you with that or you can get a certified electrician to do the job.
