In a single-family home
If you want to install charging points in a house or building with up to three dwellings, three parking spaces or three separate garages, load balancing is not mandatory, although it is still recommended.
In an apartment building
Do you want to install charging points in a house or apartment building with more than three dwellings, three parking spaces or three separate garages?
If the total power of the various charging points is lower than the contractual power supplied by Sibelga, a load balancing system is recommended.
If the total power of the various charging points is equal to or greater than the contractual power supplied by Sibelga, you have two options:
- Option 1: install a load balancing system to avoid exceeding the contractual power.
- Option 2: adjust each charging point to avoid exceeding the contractual power.

Example: I have contractual power of 100 kVA. I want to install 10 11-kW charging points, making a total of 110 kW. My contractual power is therefore 10 kW lower than the power I want to install. I can either adjust each charging point so that the power stays below 10 kW on each charging point. Or install a load balancing system that will distribute the power when all 10 charging points are being used simultaneously. |
