Wieland Electric, a pioneer in electrical connectivity and energy distribution solutions, is committed to driving innovation in the electromobility sector. Introducing Podis®, a revolutionary flexible flat cable system designed to streamline the setup of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs). With Podis®, decentralized energy distribution becomes effortless, enabling efficient and flexible EV charging in multi-storey and underground car parks.
Decentralized Power Distribution
For Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles have emerged as a promising solution for reducing CO2 emissions and improving air quality. However, the vehicles and their charging infrastructure pose challenges on the road to a greener and more sustainable future. The increasing number of electric vehicles is causing demand for electric charging stations to skyrocket, straining existing power grids and leading to power outages and expensive retrofits.
To address these challenges and facilitate long-term electromobility, Wieland Electric presents a pioneering solution for setting up a charging infrastructure with decentralized power distribution. The podis® flat cable system enables quick, safe, and flexible charging of electric vehicles in both new and existing underground car parks.
ALL ABOUT Podis® THE SYSTEM
UL LISTED SYSTEM
The podis® power distribution system is UL listed already, which simplifies installation and inspection.
Advantages of Podis®
✔️ Space Optimization
The Podis® flexible flat cable system significantly reduces the space required in control cabinets by minimizing the number of supply lines needed. This streamlined approach also decreases wiring complexity, allowing for a cleaner and more organized installation
✔️ Cost Efficiency
By utilizing flat cable connectors and flexible flat cables, the Podis® system lowers material and labor costs. The reduction in necessary components and simplified installation process also leads to less waste and fewer potential sources of error
✔️ SCALABILITY
A standout benefit of the Podis® flat cable system is its remarkable flexibility. Thanks to supporting easy retrofitting and scalability, it’s simple to expand or modify the charging infrastructure when required due to the increasing demand for EV parking spaces. With this adaptability, it’s possible to provide building owners and operators with long-term sustainability and costs.
IMPRESSIVE SPEED
Podis® allows for a quick and easy setup of charging infrastructure. It utilizes an innovative TC-ER cable (exposed run cable does not require additional protective enclosure) and clip-on outlet modules. These features enable many stations to connect to one supply line. It also eliminates the need for time-consuming dismantling and stripping of wires, significantly speeding up the installation, conversion, and expansion processes.
WE'VE TALKED ABOUT DECENTRALIZED ENERGY DISTRIBUTION, BUT WHAT EXACTLY DOES THAT MEAN?
A centralized installation requires significantly more material than a decentralized one. The large number of supply lines also means that considerable space is required in the distribution cabinet. Retrofitting thus becomes a Herculean task.
Decentralized installation with podis® allows you to implement energy distribution for an entire parking deck with just one supply line and place the modules for tapping-off energy exactly where you need them. This saves space and ensures a modern, clear aesthetic.
