NOTE The operating temperate assumes the ambient temperature of a product delivered in the default enclosure colours RAL 9016 (star white) or RAL 7021 (black grey). Direct exposure to sunlight may have an adverse effect on the temperature range. NOTE If the product is exposed to lower or higher ambient temperatures, continuous operation cannot be guaranteed.
4. Prepare the installation For overload protection or optimised self-sufficiency, additional Smappee Infinity components must be installed to measure the Grid and Solar, Battery or other submetering if applicable. NOTE For more information, refer to the Smappee Academy. The first step is to prepare the physical installation of the EV Base as described in this chapter.

Instructions Proceed as follows. Make a foundation hole large enough. Depending on the subsoil, the size may vary. Please refer to the technical specifications of size and weight to determine and construct a solid foundation for the EV Base. When dimensioning the foundation, it is advisable to carry out a static load capacity analysis according to the relevant standards.

5.1. Install the floorplate of the EV Base Context The EV Base is designed to be installed at ground level using the floorplate. Instructions Proceed as follows. Put the floorplate on the location of the EV Base. Route the two power supply cables and one network cable through the central opening of the floorplate.
Page 21
5.2. Attach the EV Base to the floorplate Context The concrete anchors in the floorplate give the position where you attach the EV Base to the floorplate. Instructions Proceed as follows. Position the EV Base above the floorplate. Lift the EV Base with at least two people. Make sure no cable can be crushed during lowering the EV Base.
