The DCC-9 allows the connection of any EV charger to a fully loaded panel by managing the energy available at all times. The DCC only allows power to be delivered to the EV charger if the total demand of the panel is below its full capacity. In a condo, the DCC can be installed in the electrical room, making possible the connection of the EV charger to the electrical infrastructure. The best solution when no additional breaker space is available, the DCC-9 permits direct utility billing to units for electricity consumed by charging.
