Introduction 0:06 Hello! Before connecting a station, let's describe your organisation: who owns the stations, and where they are installed. How it works 0:14 Everything starts with the company. A company owns site areas: a site area is a place, like a car park or a depot. 0:22 The site area groups stations. It is connected to the grid through a delivery point: the meter, with its delivery point ID. 0:29 A large site area can be split into sub-areas, which share its delivery point. Companies 0:36 In the menu, open “Companies”. Each company has a type, which states its role. 0:43 The charge point operator, or CPO, runs the stations. The asset owner owns them. The sub-operator works for an operator. 0:53 The customer account is mainly used for invoicing. And e-mobility service providers, the eMSPs, are created automatically when their badges arrive through roaming. 1:03 Here, ACME Logistique is an asset owner: its stations are run by Chargekeeper, its “Operator”. Site areas 1:11 Now for “Site Areas”. The Lyon depot is a site area, split into two bays: see the “Parent zone” column. 1:20 A site area belongs to a company: its stations and their sessions are attached to it. Its “Parent zone” makes it a sub-area. The delivery point 1:30 The delivery point is described on the main site area, “Electric meter” tab: the delivery point ID, the subscribed power and the power limit not to exceed. 1:41 The single-line diagram shows it: the grid, the delivery point, then the two bays it feeds. 1:49 On a bay, you only set its share of the power. If it has its own meter, turn on “This zone has its own delivery point”. Key takeaways 2:01 Key points: each company has a type, operator, asset owner or customer. Site areas are places, which a parent zone splits into sub-areas. And the delivery point ID goes in the electric meter of the main site area. 2:16 In the next video: creating users. See you shortly!
