Gather Tools

Tools required before installing the Wall-Mounted charger, gather the following tools:

1. Wire stripper
2. Adjustable Wrench M6
3. Voltmeter or digital multi-meter (for measuring AC voltage at the installation site)
4. Level
5. Pencil or marker
6. Drill
7. The inserting cable should meet the best waterproof performance. It is recommended to use 3 core /7AWG cable (XLPE or equivalent cable) to pull the cable from the distribution box.

Note: The above tools are very important, please gather them all.

Plan The Mounting

WARNING: In areas with frequent thunderstorms, add surge protection at the service panel for all circuits. Ensure all power and ground connections, especially those at the breaker and bus bar, are clean and tight.

CAUTION: Not recommended to be installed in coastal environments with high humidity or high dust.

STEP 1
Select the appropriate mounting location with electrical capacity:
I. Ensure the owner has chosen a mounting location that allows the charging cable to reach the car’s charging port while still providing slack.
II. The device must be anchored into mounting such as 2” x 4” stud or a solid wall.
III. The device shall be mounted at height between 2 feet (600 mm) and 4 feet (1200 mm) from ground.

STEP 2
Drill 8 Screw Holes with a diameter of 0.35” and a depth of 2.05” by using 2 mounting templates. Please drill screw holes in the direction of the template arrow. And use two templates at a horizontal distance around 12 feet.

Mount the Charging Station

STEP 3
Secure the Plug Holster to the Holster Bracket with 4 M5 Anti-theft countersunk head screws. Please ensure the grooved part of the inner ring is always downward.

STEP 4
Use 2 different sets (8 pcs in total) of Hexagonal Expansion Screws to secure the wall-mounted bracket and holster bracket (use anti-theft hexagonal expansion screws) on the wall. Then level the brackets.

STEP 5
Align the rear notch of charger with the wall-mounted bracket and fit the screw holes of the right and left side.

STEP 6
Tighten two M5 anti-theft screws to complete the installation.

Wire The Circuit

WARNING: This device must be grounded. Disconnect electrical power prior to installing the charging station

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor would result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product – if it doesn’t fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician

CAUTION: Use appropriate protection when connecting to the main power distribution cable.

STEP 7
For safe use of electricity, please set circuit breaker protection in the input part of E Charger.
The wiring is not complicated, just need to follow the instructions below:
Connect the L1 lead to the grid L1, connect the L2 lead to the grid L2, connect the PE lead to the grid PE.
