Bender CC613 charge controller receives the world's first VDE certificate
The latest CC613 charge controller from Bender has been specifically designed for use in AC charging stations operating under Mode 3, meeting the requirements of DIN EN IEC 61851-1 and IEC 62955. Recently, the VDE (Association of Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies e.V.) issued the world's first certification for a charge controller, marking a major step forward in simplifying the approval process for wall boxes and stationary charging stations.
This certification applies to the entire CC613 product range, from the entry-level "Home Basic" model, ideal for basic home charging, to the "Home Energy Management" variant, which integrates with photovoltaic systems for smart energy use. The top-tier "Fully-Connected" models include OCPP and 4G connectivity, enabling accurate billing in line with calibration laws.
A key feature of the CC613 is its patented 6 mA DC residual current detection, compliant with IEC 62955, eliminating the need for RCD type B. This innovation not only enhances safety but also reduces costs by allowing the use of more affordable RCD type A. The power circuit was tested and approved with a switching element from Eaton Industries GmbH, ensuring compliance with IEC 62955 up to 22 kW performance class.
Dennis Haub, standardization manager at Bender GmbH & Co. KG, said: “We successfully met the IEC 62955 requirements before the end of the transition period. With our RDC-MD and RCD type A, we offer customers a cost-effective alternative to RCD type B, significantly lowering installation expenses.â€
Winfried Möll, CTO at Bender, added: “Customers using this certified solution in their Mode 3 charging station can look forward to substantial cost savings and streamlined certification processes.â€
