TC_G_18_CS — Change Availability EVSE - state persists across reboot

Source: OCPP 2.0.1 Part 6 — Test Cases (Core & Advanced Security, FINAL, 2023-06-30) — Functional block G. Availability, page 216.

Test case nameChange Availability EVSE - state persists across reboot
Test case IdTC_G_18_CS
Use case Id(s)G03
Requirement(s)G03.FR.08. G01.FR.01
System under testCharging Station
Functional blockG. Availability

Description

This test case covers how the CSMS requests the Charging Station to change the availability of one of the EVSEs from Operative to Inoperative. An EVSE is considered Operative in any status other than Faulted and Unavailable.

Purpose

To verify if the Charging Station sets the availability persistent across reboot/power loss as described at the OCPP specification.

Main (Test scenario)

Charging StationCSMS
2. The Charging Station responds with a ChangeAvailabilityResponse1. The OCTT sends a ChangeAvailabilityRequest; with operationalStatus Inoperative AND evse.id <Configured evseId>
3. The Charging Station notifies the CSMS about the current state of all connectors.4. The OCTT responds accordingly.
5. Execute Reusable State Booted; Note(s):; - After booting the charging station should send the following status:; Message: StatusNotificationRequest; - connectorStatus Unavailable; - evseId <Configured evseId>; Message: NotifyEventRequest; - eventData[0].trigger Delta; - eventData[0].actualValue "Unavailable"; - eventData[0].component.name "Connector"; - eventData[0].component.evse.id <Configured evseId>; - eventData[0].variable.name "AvailabilityState"

Tool validations

Step 2:

Message ChangeAvailabilityResponse

  • status Accepted

Step 3:

Message: StatusNotificationRequest

  • evseId not 0
  • connectorId not 0
  • connectorStatus Unavailable for evseId <Configured evseId>
  • connectorStatus Available for evseId not <Configured evseId> Message: NotifyEventRequest
  • eventData[0].actualValue Unavailable for evseId <Configured evseId>
  • eventData[0].actualValue Available for evseId not <Configured evseId>

Post scenario validations

  • A message to report the state of a connector has been received for all connectors.
