Power supply isolation device

The Ford Connected Charge Station does not have its own
power ON/OFF switch. The protective devices installed in
the power supply system are therefore also used to
disconnect the Ford Connected Charge Station.
5.2.3 Dimensioning the lead's cross- section
A qualified electrician must determine the cross section
/ wire gauge size of the input conductor. See also Unit
description.
The input conductor cross section of the wire depends on:
– The maximum power availability from the service
connection
– The cable length

5.3.3 Installing the blind plugs and
conduit fitting
1. Choose the appropriate conduit, in accordance with
all applicable state, local, and national electrical codes
and standards.
2. Choose the grid cable entry position, and then
mount the conduit fitting in the required position.
There are:
– Two floor-facing entry positions at the bottom of the
enclosure (preformed ¾" NPT (National Pipe Thread)),
and
– two rear-facing entry positions at the back of the
enclosure (drill templates for ¾" to 1" conduit cut-outs).
See superimposed markings in Fig. 5.
Fig. 5
CAUTION
Remove any waste, such as insulation trimmings,
from the connection area.
For rear-facing installations, use an appropriate
cord grip that meets the NEMA 3S standard.
For floor-facing installations of the grid cable, use a
¾"NPT cord grip. (NPT = American National Standard
Pipe Thread standards, also known as national pipe
thread. CAUTION
1. When opting for rear-facing positions, you must
make sure that you drill the conduit entry hole very
carefully to prevent damage to internal components.
Any damage caused is entirely your risk. If parts of
the charge station, except the removed cut-out area,
are damaged during installation, you must not use
the product after is has been damaged.
