Step 3: Installing AC Wiring
Before connecting AC wiring, make sure the AC source circuit is
protected by a breaker switch of the correct size and type, to
comply with the electrical code for your location and application.
The current rating of the input breaker should not be larger than
20 A for 120 VAC applications and 10 A for 230 VAC applications,
but may be required to be lower depending on the wire size used.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the AC source by turning off the breaker feeding the
circuit, unplugging from shore power and disconnecting any other
power sources (such as a generator).
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious
injury.
To connect AC supply wires:
1. Plan the route that the AC supply wiring will follow from the
source (usually an AC distribution panel) to the XPLORE
Charger.
2. Measure and cut the required length of three-conductor (G,
L, N) cable allowing some extra length for connections and
providing some slack [6 in. (150 mm) suggested].
3. Unscrew the wiring compartment cover, if not already from
the previous step, and feed cables through the appropriate
cable glands (as applicable).

DANGER
4. Carefully remove 3 in. (75 mm ) of the outer jacket from the
AC supply wiring, being careful not to cut or nick the
insulation on the individual wires (conductors).
5. Strip each wire 3/8 in. (10 mm ) and crimp a wire ferrule over
each one.
6. Connect the G-L-N wires to the XPLORE Charger AC
terminal by lifting the clamp lever, inserting the ferrule tip,
and pushing the lever down and securing the ferrule tip with
the clamp (see Figure 11 Method 1). Method 2 also allows
you to push the ferrule tip of the wire into the slot without
using the lever.
NOTE: Connect the ground to the AC ground, the line
conductor to the AC line, and the neutral conductor to AC
neutral. The wires are color coded as follows:
Conductor

Green/green with yellow stripe
Line
Black/brown
Neutral
White/silver/light blue
