Thermal Monitoring
Wall Connector actively monitors temperatures in multiple locations while charging to ensure stability of the charge session. Temperature sensors are located at the relays, microcontroller, and charge handle to monitor the temperature of the terminals in the wirebox.
In warmer conditions, Wall Connector may reduce current and charge speed to
protect itself. When this happens, the light bar on the faceplate will continue to
display the “streaming green” and a blink code of three red flashes to indicate that
charging has been reduced due to high temperatures. If heat continues to rise, Wall
Connector will stop charging and display a blink code of three red flashes.

list of error codes.
For optimal performance, install Wall Connectors in areas where ambient temperature will remain below 50˚C (122˚F). In rare circumstances, Wall Connector may begin reducing amperage at 35˚C (95˚F) ambient temperatures. Adjustments to amperage are automatic and do not require user input; Wall Connector will return to starting current when temperatures are reduced.
