all applicable state, local, and national electrical codes, and
standards. See chapter 4, "Unit description" on page 9.
The input conductor cross-section of the wire depends on
multiple factors, e.g.:
– The maximum power available from the service
connection.
– The cable length.

Installation

7.5.1 Step-by-step installation
Before starting the step-by-step installation process, please
make sure that the panel, circuit, and circuit breaker are already
installed and checked for compatibility. Make sure that the circuit
is disconnected from electricity during the installation process.
NOTE
Carefully read the complete manual before starting the
installation.
Have the necessary equipment and tools ready.
Danger
High voltages
The danger of fatal electric shock. Make sure to
disconnect the charge station from the electric circuit
during the installation.
7.5.2 Installing the mounting bracket
Decide on the mounting position for the Charge Station. Please
keep in mind the following restrictions:
– Consider reaching the vehicle charging port without
straining the charging cable.
– The external coupler holder can be positioned wherever it
fits best in reachable distance.
– Keep in mind where the grid wires are located (rear-
facing or floor-facing, conduit position, hardwired
cut-outs).
– Optional:
When using an ethernet cable for hard-wired backend
connection, keep in mind where the ethernet wire is
located (rear-facing or floor-facing). It is not allowed
to use the same conduit for high power grid wires and
ethernet communicating wires.
See chapter 11, "Charge Station Dimensions" on page 18,
for product dimensions and drilling template to determine the
installation position.

NOTE
Power lines and communication lines need separate
feedings. Follow the local standard and regulations.
The following paragraphs offer alternative installation paths:
– Chapter 7.5.2.1, "Attach the bracket to a wall" on
page 12.
– Chapter 7.5.2.2, "Attach the bracket to a pole" on
page 12.
7.5.2.1
Attach the bracket to a wall
NOTE
It is recommended to install the wall mount bracket in
such a way that the lower end of the bracket is at least
40.5 inches (1030 mm) off the floor.
NOTE
You must make sure that the drill holes are at least 4
inches (100 mm) deep.
WARNING
Check if the supplied screws and dowels are appropriate
for use with your wall. Make sure to use appropriate
mounting means to guarantee that the wall and wall
bracket can securely hold the charge station and all
loads that will be applied to it.
To wall-mount the bracket:
1. Remove the mounting bracket from its box (see Fig. 1).
2. Mark the four drill hole positions on the wall using the
bracket as a template.
3. Drill four drill holes ( ⁄
inch / 8 mm) in the marked
positions.
4. Push the four wall plugs (( ⁄
x 2 inch) (8 x 50 mm)) firmly
into the drill holes.
5. Secure the bracket using a T25 screwdriver and four screws
((¹⁄ x 3¹⁄ inch)) (6 x 90 mm).
7.5.2.2
Attach the bracket to a pole
NOTE
You must install the wall mount bracket in such a way
that the lower end of the bracket is at least 40.5 inches
(1030 mm) off the floor.
WARNING
The supplied installation material is intended for
mounting the charge station on a masonry or concrete
wall. For installation on a stand, the mounting material
could differ from the used stand. The included wall
bracket works for all installations. Specific screws or
other mounting material for stands are not in the scope
of delivery.
To pole-mount the bracket:
1. Remove the mounting bracket from its box.
2. Mark the two drill hole positions on the pole.
3. Drill two holes ( ⁄
inch / 8 mm) in the marked positions.
4. Push the two wall plugs (( ⁄
x 2 inch) (8 x 50 mm)) firmly
into the drill holes.
5. Pole-mount the bracket using a T25 screwdriver and two
screws ((¹⁄ x 3¹⁄ inch) (6 x 90 mm)).
7.5.3 Removing the front cover & bend relief
Start removing the attached bend relief by hand (spiral
attachment). Remove the three screws ( ⁄
mm)) from the front cover using a T20 screwdriver, as shown
in Fig. 2.
Keep the bend relief, front cover, and screws aside for later use.
7.5.4 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. Make sure that you use installation equipment that
meets the ingress protection class of the system (NEMA 4).
2. Decide on using the optional Ethernet cable.
3. Choose the grid cable and Ethernet cable (optional) entry
positions, 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 cutouts).
See superimposed markings in Fig. 3.
– After drilling the required holes, remove all particles. Use
appropriate material and equipment to meet ingress
protection requirements (NEMA 4).
4. All not used entry interfaces must be covered with blind
plugs to meet ingress protection NEMA 4.
