  • Page 10 Notice that L1, L2, & Ground are labeled on each diagram. Those transformer outputs correspond to the same inputs on the EV40 Charger. Also, each of the two 3-phase diagrams shows an L3 output, which is not used. Do not connect all three phases of a 3-phase secondary to the EV40 Charger.
  • Page 11 With a wye-connected secondary, any two of the legs can be used to provide 208V to the EV40 Charger. For example, L1 & L2, or L1 & L3, or L2 & L3. Leave the unused leg open. Do not connect it to a Neutral bar, or to Ground. Be sure the center point is grounded to earth somewhere in the system.

  • Page 13: Mounting Procedures

    • Position the bottom of the charge station at a comfortable height and at least 18 inches above the ground. Ensure that the LEDs on the front panel of the EV40 can clearly be seen by anyone who will be operating the device.
  • Page 14 • Size 1/4-20 lag screws are recommended for mounting the EV40 to a wooden structure. Pre-drill approximately sized pilot holes to allow the lag screws to grip the wooden structure while preventing the wood from cracking or splintering while the screw is fastened.
  • Page 15 • Machine screws size 1/4-20 hardware is recommended for mounting the EV40. Screw shafts of at least 2” are recommended. The EV40 plastic angle washer hole size is 3/8” in diameter, so ensure that the screw heads are of a larger diameter. Place appropriately sized washers between the screw heads and the EV40 enclosure mounting flanges.
  • Page 16 Use a ruler or template to mark the hole locations on the mounting surface. The vertical alignment of the EV40 and SAE J1772™connector holster mounting holes • allows for the convenient mounting of both components onto the same post or wall structure.
