State of the Art EVSE 3704-Mounting Poles Product Ordering Chart Select an EVSE product number based on its mode of communication (ZigBee or Serial) to a Payment Module or Gateway (On/Off if none). The 3704-001, 002 and 003 can be used as wall-mounted units without ordering additional items. If using a pole mounted configuration, select the appropriate Pole Kit based on EVSE type (single/dual) and mode of communication (Zigbee/Serial) to the Payment/Gateway Module.
State of the Art EVSE Site Preparation Power must be located at each charging location and be supplied by individual, dedicated 40A non-GFCI circuit breakers at the service panel. A dual Model 3704 would require two circuit breakers. A qualified electrician or installer should provide local power at each charging site, install conduit runs back to the main service panel and make final wiring connections for power at the service panel.
