4.1

About construction

The construction phase includes all work required to prepare the location and make it ready
for the placement and connection of the Terra 54. The construction phase can start when:
• All preparation engineering work is done.
• All necessary permits are granted.
• The grid connection is available.
4.2

Power feed

The power cable enters the charger from below. Use foam or proper cable lugs/glands to pre-
vent the entrance of animals from the AC inlet/Ethernet cable.
4.3

Construct foundation

The correct foundation depends on the type of surface where the Terra 54 will be installed.
4.3.1

Placement on soil

There are 2 options when the charger is placed on soil:
1. Use a prefab concrete foundation to get a firm fixation on soil.
A prefab concrete foundation can be ordered separately, or produced locally accord-
ing the specifications.
2. The construction of a custom built foundation.
Depending on the situation and cable type, the cables must be embedded in the ground with
or without a cable duct. See section Cabling on Page 20.
4.3.2 Placing the ABB Standard or locally manufactured prefab concrete
foundation
1. Make a hole in the ground with a minimum of the dimensions shown.
2. Make sure the cable duct(s) are routed to one of the indicated positions (A).
3. Lower the foundation into the hole.
4. Route the cables through one of the holes (A).
