Installation Procedure

NOTE: All electrical work must be performed in accordance with the current Electrical Wiring Regulations.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
During the next steps, the charger front panel will be removed. Take care to not damage or strain cables or cable connections that run between the chassis and the front panel.

1. Remove the QubEV from the packaging.

2.  Remove and retain the fixings that secure the front panel to the charger body.

3. Carefully ease the front panel away from the charger body to gain access to the interior.
   CAUTION: Equipment Damage
   The front panel is connected to the charger body by electrical cables. Take care not to damage, strain, or disconnect the cables. At the end of the procedure, make sure all connections are secure before refitting the panel.

4. Visually inspect the QubEV and internal components.
   Components that have come away from the DIN rail may be refitted to the rail if there is no damage to the component or its securing mechanism.
   IMPORTANT: Items damaged in transit must first be reported to the courier and then to the supplier.
   • Where possible, photographic evidence of package and/or unit damage should be provided.
   •  Incorrect or damaged units must NOT be installed. Contact your supplier to discuss rectification.

5. Remove the fixing template from the packaging.

6.  Use the fixing template to mark the mounting position.
   •  Offer the QubEV fixing template up onto a flat and smooth surface.
   •  Make sure it is orientated correctly and is level.
   •  Mark the 4 fixing holes onto the surface.

7.  Drill 4 x marked fixing holes and insert the wall plugs.

8.  Make note of the position of the electrical connection terminations within the charger body.

9. Cut a neat hole in the charger body to allow entry of the power cable.
   •  Ideally, the cable should enter the charger body from below.
   •  A suitable cable gland must be used to maintain the IP integrity of the unit.

10. Make sure all debris is removed from the charger body.

11.  Secure the charger body to the mounting location with the appropriate fixings.
    NOTE: All electrical work must be performed in accordance with the current Electrical Wiring Regulations.
    CAUTION: Equipment Damage – Sensitive Equipment
    If you will be performing insulation resistance tests on the power supply cables, it is advised to be done BEFORE connecting the cable to the charger. The high voltages applied during the test may damage sensitive components if tested after the cable is connected.

12. Route the power supply cable to the appropriate length to be able to connect to the terminals.

13. Terminate the supply cable in the appropriate manner and connect to the pedestal as per the appropriate schematic.

14.  Make sure ALL cable connections are secure and have not become loose or damaged in transit or during installation.

15.  Make sure ALL debris is removed from the front and rear halves of the charger body and that no debris is present on any of the components.
    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    It is the responsibility of the installing engineer to satisfy themselves, that all cable terminations throughout this product are secure and tight and have not become loose, strained, or disconnected during transit and/or installation.
