Tesla retrofit button kit

This kit can be used to incorporate a custom Tesla button in an existing female type 2 plug. Make sure you can open the plug and that there is enough space inside to house the electronic print and the battery if needed. You need a 3V power supply or use a 3V battery! The electronics for use with a battery are different!

All components are waterproof. The kit uses a 3.3V source, you need to have this available from your charging station through the charging cable or use the optional 3V battery. The optional pushbutton provided with the kit needs a hole diameter of 16mm.

These are the connections to be made when installing the kit:

• red wire to +3.3V (or red wire of battery if fitted)
• green wire goes to PE terminal of connector (and grey wire of battery if fitted)
• purple wire goes to the PP terminal of the connector
• grey wires go to the pushbutton switch

To connect the green and purple wire, look inside the connector and you will see a wire running from the PP terminal to the PE (earth) terminal. There will be a resistance in the wire (220 Ohm for a 32A connector, 680 Ohm for a 16A version). You need to cut both ends of the resistance to remove it from the wire. The correct resistance is provided by the electronic print.
Connect the purple wire to the PP side wire and the green cable to the PE side of the wire you just cut. 

Make sure you order the correct version for your cable. Installing a 32A version on a 16A cable might cause your cable to catch fire, installing a 16A version on a 32A cable will reduce your charging power...

Return or refund for the retrofit kit is not possible after an installation attempt has been performed
