Load Manager (EVEMS)
Smart charging for limited electrical capacity
What is a Load Manager (EVEMS)?
A Load Manager, also known as an Electric Vehicle Energy Management System (EVEMS), is a smart device that manages power distribution between your home's electrical system and your EV charger. It prevents overloading your electrical panel by intelligently controlling when and how much power flows to the charger.
This is especially valuable for homes with 100-amp or 150-amp service, where a traditional Level 2 charger installation might exceed available capacity.
How Load Managers Work
Continuously monitors your home's electrical usage across all circuits
Calculates available capacity and determines safe charging power levels
Automatically adjusts charger output to prevent panel overload
Your EV charges safely while your home operates normally
