    Christoph Erni is a Swedish member of the committee that develops the international standard for conductive charging systems for EVs (IEC 61851). He is also the CEO of the Swiss charging infrastructure manufacturer Juice Technology. It is common practice for industry representatives to contribute to the standards. Nevertheless, it is worth noting here that Erni is not only a representative of the ICE but also the head of an Easee competitor.

    Current regs here require an RCD downstream of a charger, so it matters very little here.

    An interesting test shows that infact Easee’s electronic RCD indeed passed on every single test with flying colours!  (the Metrel M13155 is the same as I got and is one hell of a piece of kit)
