HCS-D EVSE Mounting for Hollow-Wall Construction
• Place the unit such that both mounting holes can take
advantage of solid structural framing inside of the wall or a
strong wall surface such as plywood.
• Size ¼”- 20 lag screws are recommended for mounting the
HCS-D to a wooden structure. Pre-drill appropriately sized
pilot holes to allow the lag screw to grip the wooden structure
while preventing the wood from cracking or splintering while
the screw is fastened.
• The included plastic angle washers can be oriented to allow
the lag screws to be fastened at an angle while still providing a
solid flat backing to the screw head.
•
If the screw head is smaller than the 3/8” washer aperture,
an additional flat washer will need to be placed between the
plastic angle washer and the head of the lag screw.
• If either mounting hole does not have a solid mounting
structure (such as drywall without a solid backing) it will be
necessary to use proper anchoring hardware such as drywall
toggles or molly bolts.
