1-Way 7kW EV Charger
IMPORTANT: Read carefully before use. Keep for future reference.
Introduction
Easee Base
The Easee Base is a modular charging post for mounting up to four Easee
Charging Robots.
With Easee Base, it is possible to choose between multiple configurations:
1-Way setup, where only one charger is mounted; 2-Way setup, with two
chargers; and 4-Way setup, with up to 4 chargers installed.
With multiple configurations in one design, they share many common parts. Only
a few parts are specific to each type of layout.

Power Rail
Before connecting
Power Rail
The Power Rail is a connection box that allows multiple charging posts to be
connected in series. Connection via Power Rail requires the circuit to be RCD
protected.
Please pay attention to the earthing system of the charging post, which is
described carefully in the following pages.
WARNING! The Power Rail is a product to be installed by an authorized
electrician, and a declaration of conformity must always be provided upon
completion by your installer.
WARNING! Turn off the power before beginning the wiring. Use extreme
caution and follow instructions carefully.
1 Power Rail
Ground connection plate
Before installing the Power Rail make sure to apply the ground connection plate. The plate is essential for connecting the post to the protective earth (PE).
- Make sure the top PE terminal screw is open, then wedge the end of the plate into the terminal from the back. The ground connection plate should lie flat to the plastic housing.
- Insert the serrated washer on the rod inside the column. It should be placed between the metal column and the Power Rail.
- Slide the Power Rail with the ground connection plate inside the column and latch the bottom of the rail into the catch.
- Fasten the grounding nut with the spring washer on the rod.
NOTICE! In order to complete the PE connection, the grounding nut has to
be fastened and the top PE terminal screw has to be tightened (regardless of
whether there is a wire in it or not).
Important! Do not forget this step!
2Terminals
Power Rail
The ground connection plate connects the entire leftmost lane to the metal
column, so it is very important that this lane is only used for PE
connections.
We recommend using the two lower terminal sets for the main power cables.
One set of terminals is used for power in and the other is used for power out,
if you want to connect another charging post on the same cable. Wire size up
to 25mm² ALU and CU.
We recommend using the two upper terminal sets for the charger cables.
For a single charger, only one set of terminals is used, and for two chargers,
both sets of terminals are used.
Wire size up to 6mm².
3 Wiring
Power Rail
- Strip the individual wires by 12 mm. If the cable has flexible conductors, it is recommended to use ferrules on stranded wires. Use correct tools to press them.
- Tighten the screw terminal with a torque of 5 Nm.
NOTICE! Dielectric grease must be added when using ALU conductors.
NOTICE! When connecting multiple backplates in parallel, each screw terminal serves as a coupling point for adjacent backplates. All backplates must be connected with the same phase sequence. External junction boxes or flat cables can be used if it is more convenient.
NOTICE! It’s recommended to follow the existing colour codes used in the installation. Depending on national standards, the colours of the cables can vary from the illustrations. The illustrations in this manual follow the IEC 60446 standard.
NOTICE! Before turning on the power, make sure the wires are properly connected and tightened. Test this by pulling on each wire.
4 Side panel
Power Rail
After connecting all wires to the Power Rail, it is time to mount the side panel with the 4 rounded head screws.
Practical details
Warranty
The device is free from material defects and is in accordance with laws and
regulations for consumer protection in the country where the product is
purchased or where the consumer lives. All correctly installed Easee hardware
is covered by our 3 years
limited warranty.
Some countries may have extended warranty.
Foundation
This charging post usually needs a mechanical foundation to be installed. The
adapter plate is compatible with most c/c 160 mm foundations.
In some situations, it is also possible to use the smaller base of the column
directly without the adapter plate, in this case using a 80 x 80 center to
center footprint.
Screws
For all the flat and rounded head screws we recommend 7-9 Nm of torque.
