Installation Procedure
Base Installation – If Supplied:
1. Prepare the ground and set the ground mounting base in the desired location.
x Make sure ALL cables are fed upward through the middle of the base.
2. Concrete the base into place and allow time for it to set.
x The lip of the base should be 2 – 3 mm above the surface.
If a Base is Not Supplied:
1. Prepare a suitable area of firm, flat ground.
x It must be possible to secure the charger to the ground with bolts or similar
fasteners that are appropriate to the type of prepared ground.
x Typically, into concrete, M8 x 100mm Anchor Bolts should be used but installers
must assess the site and choose the most appropriate fastener for their needs.
Install the Charger Pedestal
WARNING: Electrical Power
Make sure electrical power is isolated BEFORE starting this procedure.
x Turn power OFF at SOURCE.
NOTE: All electrical work must be performed in accordance with the current Electrical
Wiring Regulations.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
During the next steps the charger skin will be removed. Take care to not damage or
strain cables or cable connections that run between the chassis and the front skin.
1. Remove and retain the fixing bolts securing the front panel to the pedestal chassis.
2. Carefully ease the front panel away from the unit to gain access to the interior.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
Panels are connected to the main assembly by electrical cables. Take care not to
damage, strain, or disconnect the cables. Make sure all connections are secure
before refitting the skins.
3. Cut a neat hole(s) in the base of the chassis, taking note of the preformed areas in
the base, to allow entry of the power and ethernet cable (if required).
4. Cut a neat hole(s) in the supplied rubber splash mat to match the mounting points
of the base and to allow entry of the power and ethernet cable (if required).
5. Fit the mat over the cables and onto the four studs of the ground mounting base or
the securing points if a base was not supplied.
6. Carefully lift the pedestal then lower the chassis over the cables and onto either:
x the ground mounting base (align the four holes in the chassis with the four studs
of the base).
x the prepared surface.
7. Route the cables to the appropriate length to be able to connect to the terminals.
