Preparation
Before beginning the installation:
1. Check that the concrete pad is level and cured.
2. Verify that the service wiring, circuit protection, and metering complies with local codes/regulations and
is ready per the Boost Charger Site Preparation Guide (Part Number 770-00004-01)
3. Ensure the grounding conductor is properly grounded and complies with local codes.
4. Confirm there is a strong cellular signal available. The Boost Charger requires a cellular network. Install
repeaters if the signal is below -110 dBm or if the signal is intermittent. A hard-wired internet connection
can be used if there’s no cellular signal available.
5. Check to make sure that the area is safely marked off and has enough space available for tooling,
shipping crates, lifting equipment, and work trucks.
6. Confirm that all parts, tools, and equipment are available.
7. Become familiar with the entire Boost Charger installation process.
Important: In geographic areas that experience frequent thunderstorms, a supplemental surge
protection breaker must be installed at the service panel.
