Installation
Safety requirements
Connecting and installing this product must be done by a qualied electrician. The owner or
facility manager is responsible for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the charging
station, whereby both the law regarding the safety of persons, animals, and property must be
observed, as well as the installation instructions enforced in the country of use.
Read the safety instructions before you start working on the installation.
Ensure the correct supply voltage/power and ensure that the meter cabinet is properly
secured.
• Before shipment, each EVBox charging station is checked for correct connections and the
charging station is operationally tested.
• Before switching on the charging station, check that the power source available
corresponds to the conguration settings of the product as described in the manual.
• Check that all connectors are properly seated on the controller unit. (All stations are
checked on this parameter before they leave our factories, but in rare instances, a
connector can become loose or disconnected due to unforeseen transport conditions).
• Ensure that the equipment is used under the correct operating conditions.
• Never operate the product in wet, dusty, or explosive surroundings.
• Ensure that there is always adequate space (at least 8”) surrounding the product for
ventilation purposes.
Planning the installation
Minimum requirements
• Each unit MUST be connected with its own dedicated power line – for a BusinessLine
Double you need to run 2 power feeds. Find more about circuit sharing in the specic
documentation.
• Calculate the existing electrical load to determine the maximum operating current.
• Calculate the distance to ensure minimal voltage drop.
• Obtain any necessary permits from the local authority that has jurisdiction and conrm
that the follow-up inspection has been scheduled by a qualied electrician after the
installation is complete.
• Use only copper conductors.
• Use conductors that are sized in accordance with local wiring regulations. The selected
cable gauge must be able to sustain periods of a constant load up to 40A.
• Each unit should have a dedicated 40A circuit breaker.
The charging station is set to charge at a maximum current of 32A by default, requiring a
40A upstream circuit breaker. The maximum allowable current can be decreased according to
available amperage. This must be congured on-site by a technician, or remotely in the case of
a networked station. EVBox highly recommends planning your installation for 32A current.
