ABB Microlectric® EM series | EVEMS

February 25, 2026

As electric vehicle (EV) adoption grows, so does the demand on the electrical grid and the need for convenient home charging solutions. Choosing the right technology for EV readiness has never been more important.

The Microlectric® products makes it possible with innovative made in Canada solutions.

BP320 series meter sockets are a smart alternative to traditional 200 A or 400 A models in homes requiring electrical upgrades, especially in regions allowing 320 A service entrances.

EM series of EVEMS is the perfect solution when upgrades aren’t an option due to capacity or budget. It provides a cost-effective, hassle-free path to EV readiness.

What is an EVEMS?

An Electric Vehicle Energy Management System (EVEMS) is designed to optimize energy management during EV charging.

By monitoring the residence’s electrical capacity in real-time, an EVEMS ensures that charging only occurs when sufficient capacity is available.

This prevents system overloads, allowing EV owners to safely and efficiently charge their vehicles without exceeding their electrical capacity.

It enables a residence to be EV-ready, while avoiding costly upgrades to the electrical infrastructure when capacity is limited.

Why is this important?

  • EVEMS allows safe and efficient charging without exceeding the building’s electrical capacity.
  • It’s the most effective tool to manage the rising demand for energy while minimizing the need for costly electrical upgrades.
