Installation Instructions
Before Installing
These installation instructions are intended for specialized electricians. Only qualified, specialized electricians
should hardwire the charger. In addition to the charger installation instructions, follow all federal, provincial
and local laws, regulations, ordinances, codes and safety standards.
When considering installation locations, there are a few things to keep in mind:
1. Make sure to follow all local codes and regulations for safety and accessibility.
Determine Your Power Rating
1. Prior to installing your charger, work with your electrician to determine the amperage setting that best fit your
home’s electrical capacity. This may determine which type of installation you will need and the best location
for the charger.

Pick your Location
1. Install the mounting bracket for the charger measured from the bottom of the bracket between 31.5 (80 cm)
and 47.2" (120 cm) above the ground.
2. Install the holster measured from the bottom between 31.5" (80 cm) and 43.3" (110 cm) above the ground.
1. To allow for proper airflow and working room, the charger should be located 12" (30.5 cm) from any other
equipment, walls, or other obstructions.
2. The bracket must be mounted on a flat surface so that the bracket does not deform when properly secured.
3. Plug-In Installation Note: Prior to mounting the charger, turn off the circuit breaker for the desired outlet and
plug in the charger. This will allow for proper placement of the charger. Be sure the plug cord has a gentle
curve and is not stretched.
1. When selecting a location to install the charger, make sure that when your electric vehicle is parked, the
charge cable can easily connect to the vehicle. Keep in mind where the vehicle’s charging port is located (it
varies from vehicle to vehicle) and how the vehicle will usually be parked.
2. The best installation locations have enough space to easily store the cable around the charger itself or the
holster provided with the charger and will not interfere with pathways or other items in the garage or
driveway.
