Normally, the earth wire should be properly connected, otherwise the EV charger will not work.
For situation where there is no earth connection, in order to enable the EV Charger to operate, it can be set via APP to turn off the earth
detection and it will work, but it will reduce to the leakage protection safety level.
This BCP series AC EV charger must be grounded via a permanent electrical system or equipment grounding conductor.
Before installing an AC EV charger, please confirm the type of grid connection available. If you are unsure of the type of connection
available on the service panel, please consult an electrician or contact ZJBENY for assistance.
Note:Please consult your local electrician or refer to your local code in order to choose the proper wire for the AC EV charger current.
Warning
3.1. Installation Considerations
Note: Throughout the manual, "conduit" is used as the standard term for the protective tubing that houses the service wiring. In regions where
conduit is not used (Europe for example), a cable comprised of service wiring enclosed in a protective jacket may be substituted for conduit if
allowed by local regulations.
Here are some additional guidelines
Conduit needs to be metal and flame retardant.
Use an appropriate circuit breaker.
To keep the housing weatherproof, use cable glands.

3.2. Minimum Installation Requirements
Calculate the existing electrical load to determine the maximum operating current.
Calculate the distance to ensure minimal voltage drop.
Obtain any necessary permits from the local authority that has jurisdiction and confirm that the follow-up inspection has been scheduled by
an electrician after the installation is complete.
Use only copper conductors.
Use copper wire that meets the specifications of local wiring regulations. The selected cable must be capable of withstanding continuous
loads of up to 40A at all times. The selected circuit protection device must incorporate an appropriate wall-mounted residual current device
(RCD) and corresponding electrical load over current protection.
Installation of the wall charger requires that you:

3.3. Position
Ensure that the parking position is within range of the charging cable.
There is enough clearance for the charging cable to wrap around and the charging handle can be comfortably positioned on the side of base.
If installed in an enclosed garage, choose to install on the side of the EV charger slot.
For outdoor installations, waterproof protection is recommended but not mandatory.
Install in a well-ventilated space. Avoid installation in enclosed boxes or close to high power appliances.
