Lee, I think I figured it out. I Googled "Charge Port CP7100" and found an ebay listing for a CV7200. It appears the CP7100 is the input device. The CP7100 connects to the CV7200. The CV7200 is the battery charger because it outputs DC. In addition, the nameplate on the CV7200 shows an input frequency of 80-370 KHz. Therefore, I conclude the induction system on the EV1 operated at 80-370KHz.

I showed the nameplate data as "Charge Port CP7100, 475VAC Peak, 22A AC Max, 400 Hz, 6.5 KW Max Output Power, Manf Date July 1996." I should have showed "Charge Port CP7100, 475VAC Peak, 22A AC Max, 6.5 KW Max Output Power. This is the info on the main nameplate. The info "Manf Date July 1996" and " Delco Electronics Power Control Systems" are on separate nameplates. A 6" X 6" black sticker on the rear of the unit shows "Magne Charger". The 400Hz is hand written at the bottom of the unit. After thinking about the info, the 400Hz does not make sense. I think, the unit's outputs goes to the battery. If this is true then the output should be DC not AC voltage. I rechecked the nameplate data and it is correct. At present, I must confess, I do not know the function of this unit. The unit was installed on the vehicle and the charging paddle slid into the slot on the unit. Any thoughts ?? ________________________________ From: ROBERT <bhensle...@msn.com> Sent: Sunday, November 6, 2016 8:14 PM To: Lee Hart; Electric Vehicle Discussion List Subject: Re: [EVDL] Cheap L2 charging in parking places: Bolt EV's In Production Lee, I was making the following points in my e-mail concerning the installation of a large number of EVSEs in a parking area: (1) The installation will be very expensive because of the size of the required electrical distribution system (2) Maintenance will be expensive because of the large number of EVSEs and equipment failure rates (3) The system will have a low utilization rate because vehicle will be parked for an extended periods (4) System security is low because of scammers and no local oversight (5) Not a safe system because of a possible pool of water or vandalism. (6) The cost of an EVSE is small relative to the cost of the system; therefore, a lower cost intelligent outlet will have a minor impact on the total system cost. Due to the above points, the installation of a large number of EVSEs in a parking area (1) is not an efficient use of equipment, (2) has low system security, (3) unsafe system and (4) is not a good use of capital. My suggestion to solve the problem was for everyone to charge at home with a NEMA type outlet or use an induction type system in a parking area. An induction type system reduces the installation cost because of a reduction in the size of the electrical distribution system. With an induction coupled system, the main source can sense the presence of a vehicle or if a vehicle requires power; therefore, the main source can be sized to the utilization rate. The main source can alternate between vehicles. This cannot be done with an EVSE system. The NEC requires that the service required for each EVSE be sized at full load. See Perl Hartman e-mail describing a 100 plug L2 system. It required 2000A at 120VAC. With a 20% utilization rate, the induction system would only require 400A at 120VAC. Maintenance cost would be lower because the system consist of a main power source, distribution panel, and numerous coils of wire. The system is safer because it is not effected by water and is secure from vandalism. Other technical points: An X10 system (PowerLine Transmission) will not work in an industrial or commercial environment because of signal attenuation, electrical noise, transmission across transformers, and low data transmission rate. RF is not reliable in a structure with high levels of electrical noise or a lot of rebar (steel) and concrete. Cell phones and radios do not work reliably in underground or high rise parking garages or some houses. In my house, I cannot use a wireless modem. My house has to much rebar, concrete, and earth. I looked at the nameplate on the Magne Charger that I have in my workshop. It showed: Charge Port CP7100, 475VAC Peak, 22A AC Max, 400 Hz, 6.5 KW Max Output Power, Manf Date July 1996. Also, it showed the manufacturer as Delso Electronics Power Control Systems. This is the unit that is installed in the car. I could not find the nameplate data on the pedestal unit with the paddle. If you have any electrical schematics or other info on these units, I would be interested. Thanks Bob Hensley. ________________________________ From: EV <ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org> on behalf of Lee Hart via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> Sent: Sunday, November 6, 2016 9:59 AM To: Electric Vehicle Discussion List Subject: Re: [EVDL] Cheap L2 charging in parking places: Bolt EV's In Production ROBERT via EV wrote: > An EVSE requires an AC cable and data cable.

An intelligent outlet could do the same, and use RF, or carrier current signalling to communicate with the EV. For example, the GM EV1 Magnechargers used RF signals for authentication. Remember, they had *no* wires between the vehicle and EVSE. The common X10 system is used to remotely control all sorts of AC loads. Special outlets have a circuit that can send and receive data over the existing AC power line wiring, and can switch the AC on or off. These outlets are mass-produced and sell for only $20 or so each. > However, the high cost is the installation cost and maintenance cost. People forget that large areas of the nation have already had a charging infrastructure for a very long time. It's been there to plug in ICE block heaters, Christmas lights, run electric lawnmowers, etc. Outdoor AC outlets have been required by the NEC (National Electric Code for decades. In the states where I've lived (Michigan, New York, and Minnesota, just about every home, apartment, and business has these standard 120vac 15a convenience outlets already installed and freely available for use. > High installation and maintenance cost are a problem with developing > an EV charging infrastructure.

Remember the EV1 induction charging paddle. The > system operated at 400 HZ. The EV1 Magnecharger worked at a much high frequency (around 50 KHz). The higher frequency actually *hurt* efficiency, but was necessary to make the paddle small and light. We've had 60 Hz induction charging setups for 50%+ years. For example, Inductran has made them for charging in-plant EVs. Half of a conventional 60 Hz transformer is in the floor, and the other half in the vehicle. Drive over it, and turn it on. The two halves of the transformer magnetically link, to charge safely and efficiently. We don't really need expensive high-tech solutions for charging. It's fundamentally no different than plugging in any other appliance, and people have been doing that for 100 years. -- Buy thneeds! It's what everyone needs! Get em' now 'fore they're gone!
