Wall Mount Considerations
l
CP6000 wall mounted charging stations use surface mount wiring.
l
When pulling electrical wiring for wall mount stations, the conduit and wire must be brought to the
location where the stations will be mounted. Flex conduit is typically used to bring the wire to the
station. Wiring is brought in through knock outs in the bottom of the charging station.
Pedestal Mount Considerations
l
CP6000 pedestal mounted charging stations typically require service wiring installed underground
to enter through the bottom of the station.
l
When pulling electrical wiring for CP6000 pedestal mount, ensure at least 1.5 m (5 ft) of wire
remains above grade.
Conduit
The outside diameter of conduit must not exceed the sizes called out in the pedestal mounting template:
95 mm (3.74 in). Conduit stub-ups must measure between 152 mm (6 in) and 590 mm (23.25 in) above
grade.
Conduit stub-ups must not extend higher than 600 mm above ground level.
Electrical Supply Requirements
Wiring must be sized in accordance with all applicable codes for continuous load devices. The main
standard for cable size is based on IEC 60364-5-52:2009 and IEC 60364-5-54:2011. The terminal block
accepts stranded or solid conductors up to 1/0 AWG (50 mm
2
). The appropriate size depends upon the
distance between the electrical panel and the charging station installation site and the maximum current in
the circuit.
Note: For stranded conductors, the application of ferrules is recommended.
When planning multiple EV charging stations, it is best practice to separate non-continuous from
continuous loads, with all branch circuits for EV charging on a dedicated electrical panel assembly with
adequate circuit breakers. When sizing new electrical panels dedicated for EV charging, all branch circuits
must support continuous load.
CP6000 charging stations are designed for connection to and operation on rated voltages of 208 V or
240V (phase to phase) at 60 Hz. Source must have neutral bonded to ground to establish 120 V phase to
ground.
CAUTION: CP6000 charging station is rated Over-voltage Category III and includes surge
protection for absorbing transient over voltages. CP6000 charging stations are tested to IEC
61000-4-5 (4 kV) standards. In countries where extra Surge Protection Device protection is
required, check the national codes for categorization and installation of the equipment.
