Key Requirements / Wiring Diagram Key Requirements

1. Each EV charging station shall be on a dedicated electrical circuit.
2. Each station shall be protected with a 40 Amp 2-pole common trip circuit breaker (non-GFCI type).
3. Each station is designed to draw a maximum of 30Amps.
4. Each station can operate on either a 240V or 208V circuit.
5. Each station requires three electrical supply wires (two hot, one ground, no neutral).
6. All data communication is wireless, so there is no data cabling to install, but cellular communication is required.

Wiring Diagram

1. 208 VAC three phase, Delta system, Center tap grounded (use only two phases)
2. 208 VAC three phase, Wye system (use only two phases)
3. 240 VAC single phase

In a delta system, connect the Blink station only to a center-tapped grounded transformer only as shown below. Connect the station to the side where ground is bonded (in figure C line A and C). This allows voltages to remain constant regardless of other loads that may be using the lines. Please do not connect to other type of power sources shown below.

 Anchor Plate Installation

Follow the same procedure for both Single and dual pedestal mount installation

•  Anchor Plate Key Dimensions

When pouring new concrete, request a Blink Charging Anchor Kit which contains .

Fit all J-Bolts (4), Pedestal (4) and CMS (2) Disposable Bolts to the anchor plate.

• The flat side on which 6 nuts are welded on the Anchor Plate face downwards.
• Do not remove Disposable Bolts (6) from the anchor plate until the pedestal is ready to be installed.
• Make sure that only one thread of the top nut is visible after the J-Bolts are fitted to the anchor plate.

On New Concrete

• Ensure that at least 40″ of wire extends out of the conduit.
• Insert the anchor plate into the concrete immediately after pouring the concrete.
• It is recommended to vibrate the concrete to eliminate any air bubbles.
• Anchor plate surface should be in level with the ground.

On Existing Concrete

• Ensure that at least 40″ of wire extends out of the conduit.
• Mark anchoring points with the help of anchor plate template.
• Drill 4 holes into the concrete, each minimum 2.2″ deep.
• Put anchor bolts provided by Blink Charging, ensuring that bolts extend out.
• Place anchor plate on top of stud anchors.

SemaConnect Single/ Dual Pedestal Installation Procedure

• Once the concrete has set, remove the Sacrificial bolts from the anchor plate.
• Then place the pedestal on top of anchor plate and screw in four pedestal mounting screw. Do not tighten it fully.
• Make sure the electrical wire is passed through the pedestal.
• Ensure that access panel is to your right, when seen from the front end.
• Align Pedestal for plumb with the help of Set screw on the pedestal. Once the Pedestal is plumb, fully tighten the pedestal mounting screw.

Pedestal Mount Preparing the Blink Charging Series 6 Head Unit
