Mounting Specifications for Pads
The station can be installed on either a newly poured pad or an existing concrete surface. The mounting
surface must be smooth and cannot exceed a slope of 6.35 mm per 304.8 mm (0.25 inches per foot).
WARNING: If not installed correctly, the station may pose a fall hazard, leading to death, personal
injury, or property damage. Always use the provided Concrete Mounting Template shown pre-
installed in the Introduction, or a ChargePoint-approved surface mounting solution, to install the
charging station. Always install in accordance with applicable codes and standards using licensed
professionals. Non-approved installation methods are performed at the risk of the contractor and
void the Limited One-Year Parts Exchange Warranty.
Note: Although new pad installation is the most common mounting method, Surface Conduit Entry (SCE) is
also allowed. Contact ChargePoint for the approved mounting hardware if a site requires an SCE
installation, a surface mount template for drilled and epoxied anchor bolts, or low clearance
accommodation (such as a low ceiling parking garage).
