To the guys having problems with PWCC/PMCC and a BMW iX. For a test, please can you turn off the "PLC connection to the vehicle" flag in the PWCC Settings (accessible via Wifi of PWCC)? The iX still has a quirky Plug&Charge feature and simply does not expect, that an AC equipment requests...

I only now see that you are located in Russia. The Porsche Wall Charger PWCC is only available in the US. In Russia and the rest of Europe there is only the Porsche Mobile Charger available. This can be throttled to 11kw by using the touch screen. But it is a mobile device anyhow and you have to...

Yes, the electrician can set the max. available current via a rotary switch during Installation.

The setting your are trying to change in the PMCC is showing two possibilities: Either you got an 11kW variant of the PMCC, which were sold at least at beginning of the Taycan production in some countries at least. You can check that by reading the PMCC label at the back. Or you have an...

I don't know that product personally, but maybe it gives some ideas.

I also thought at first. But following the installation manual it definitely isn't. It has configuration options for the electrician to set it up for a hardwired connection. No sockets or changeable adapter cables.

Did Porsche also mention their own 80A wallbox when getting your order? I stumbled over it in their web shop. Seems not to be available yet, but in summer though. Plus there is not much info available and it does not look very portable at all ;)...

Hi Bre72, which dealer gave you so much bad advice. Or no at all. The Porsche mobile chargers are outdoor rated with IP55. So that should not be an issue. Additionally the Taycan has charge timers and profiles to push the charge times into the night etc. I don't know if Octopus forces you to buy...

Hi David, What type of On board charger the car is equipped with? 11kW or 22kW? It is very strange that the polestar charges and the Taycan not.

When downloading the Update image for offline update from Porsche website, it presents the change notes. Strangely enough, when your device has updated via OTA already, the website will deny you the file and info. So you have to be creative to enter a serial number like 0012345 and hope that it...

Not being able to crosspost I share the screenshot I have documented in another post. These are the changenotes from Porsche website

Hi Feye, why don't you buy a PLC adapter in your local Computer Store and link it with the PMCC? And on the other side connect your PLC adapter via Ethernet cable or Wifi to your home network? I guess the power lines to the charger end up in your your home power panel, so a PLC connection...

Hi guys, these are the change notes I got when I downloaded the software 2925 from Porsche website for offline update. Hope it clarifies some things. It seems there is a car update also coming by end of March. I really think we will only see some of the changes working only after that second event.

Why should there be the need to have an extra housing for using the PMC outside? Isn't it waterproof on its own? [LifeHack] Someone pointed me to another thing. The basic dock of the Audi e-tron charger looks fairly the same like the Porsche one, with the exception that it can be locked with a...

Hi Philip That has to be 7.2kW. Other owners in UK already got 7.2kW with a blue Commando socket and the mobile charger. It would save you alot of money for the Andersen unit plus installation Is the maximum charge current dialed down in the settings menu of the charger?

Can you post a photo of the back label of your taycan charger? What does it show on the US variant? In Europe it tells the supported phase system.

I found a very good explanation regarding the two standards EVs are using currently, implementing a bi-directional communication (ISO15118 and DIN spec 70121). Maybe that clarifies some details (even with regard to AC and DC charging...

yes, it's called ISO15118. :) And also for AC charging it defines a communication protocol over Powerline to the car. This Plug and Charge feature announced for the Taycan is also defined in this ISO15118 spec. But it seems in case of the PMCC it does not provide as much information to show as...

There is a technical solution. Its ISO15118 communication over powerline to the car. And the PMCC should support that. Following a text from Porsche FAQ: Home charging Which functions of the Mobile Charger Connect and the Home Energy Manager can be used with older vehicles (e.g. the Porsche...

The charger goes into sleep mode when it is not used or charging the car. There is a config item in the web application system settings somewhere to disable auto deep sleep mode. So it would stay online continuously and only dimming the display. Second, did you try to use...
