What is a CBID and Where Can You Find It?
Names, codes, and abbreviations—dealing with them can be tricky, but understanding the CBID is simple. Here's everything you need to know!
What Does CBID Mean?
CBID stands for Charge Box Identifier. It refers to a unique code that identifies each charge point, allowing it to be recognized on the eMobility platform. This code is typically provided by the distributor or manufacturer of the charge point.
Where Can You Find the CBID?
The CBID can be found in the following locations:
LCD Screen: If the charge point has an LCD screen, the CBID will be displayed there.
Sticker: If the charge point doesn't have an LCD screen or it's not visible, the CBID is often placed on a sticker located in a prominent position on the charger.
The CBID is the unique number that enables the charger to connect to the eMobility Platform. It is often displayed on the charger or may also be the same as the serial number. When configuring a charger on E-Flux by Road, this number will be indicated as the CBID.
