To connect the EV Charging Station to the mains supply, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that the AC input is protected by a fuse or magnetic circuit breaker rated at 40A or less. The cable cross-section must be sized accordingly.
2. If charging at 22kW, it is recommended to use a 40 amp RCD type B protected supply.
3. Use a recommended cable cross-section of 6mm² / AWG 10.
4. Remove the black backing plate by removing the 8 screws.
5. Mark the wall where the charging station should be mounted using the removed backing plate.
6. Drill 4 holes with wall plugs ready for installation.
7. Measure a suitable location and drill through the wall for the cable (when the main supply cable comes from inside the building).
8. Label each individual cable and pass it through the wall, the nylon gland, the grommet, and into the charging station.
9. Terminate the cable ends with ferrules and connect them to the relevant points. If this is a single-phase installation, use L1, neutral, and earth connections.
10. Tighten the nylon gland around the cable.
11. Mount the black panel onto the charging station and xxxx back the 8 screws.
12. Mount the station on the wall.
