STEP 4 Hardwire the
VersiCharge and
Ferrite core
installation - skip if
using an existing
240 V outlet.
(Figure 6) VersiCharge will need to be mounted on the bracket to hardwire the device.
Plug-supplied units only:
1. Open the VersiCharge to expose backside of the unit.
2. Remove the high voltage door by releasing snaps (Use flat head screwdriver if needed to assist).
3. Disconnect the attachment plug wires from the terminal block by loosening screws in positions 1, 2, and 3 and remove the
Ferrite core (the core will be reinstalled when hardwired).
4. Disconnect and remove strain relief and entire cord-and-plug assembly and follow Hardwiring for plug and non-plug units
below.
Hardwiring for plug and non-plug units:
NOTE: Do not adjust the two screws on the right side of the terminal block relays. These are for factory use only.
1. Expose the wiring terminals by opening the back of the unit, loosen lug screws.
2. Route conductors into the VersiCharge from the conductor opening with proper strain relief.
3. Pull 3-6 inches of slack through the conductor opening.
4. Locate the Ferrite core (the Ferrite core supplied in the resealable plastic bag or reserved when the plug was removed). Slide
the Ferrite core over the black and red wires ONLY, and into position per Figure 6 (the green wire/ground should not be
placed through the Ferrite core).
5. Wire conductors (copper only) into VersiCharge (L1, L2 and Ground) from connected conduit. Using torque screwdriver,
torque all lugs to 14.5 lb.-in. See Appendix D for wire bending diagram.
6. Replace the high voltage door and secure by engaging snaps.
7. Swing the unit closed until the bracket clip engages and secure the charger with the tamper-resistant security screws.
8. Turn the circuit breaker for this circuit to the ‘ON’ position.
NOTE:
1. When installing the hardwired VersiCharge, power connections shall be made at line terminals with 14.5 in-lb. torque driver.
2. The rating of the circuit breaker that will be required is based on the ampere rating of the EVSE; 40A requires 50A breaker,
48A requires 60A breaker. Verify that the amp adjustment switch is set per the table above.
3. Plug removal is only necessary when hardwiring a plug-supplied VersiCharge unit.
NOTE: This enclosure has not been evaluated for rigid metallic and rigid non-metallic conduit. In order to maintain a
Type 4 UL50E environmental rating, a hardwired installation should use liquid tight flexible conduit only, with conduit glands
rated UL Type 4, 4X, 6 or 6P.
STEP 5 SIM Card Installation
- Commercial Parent
Units Only (Figure 7) If not factory installed, SIM Card Installation Information
This hardware uses a micro SIM card, but with an adapter will allow nano SIM cards.
The SIM card should NOT require a PIN. Locked SIM cards are not supported by VersiCharge hardware.
The following carriers are supported : USA-AT&T, T-Mobile and Canada-Rogers/Telus. Data plans should have a minimum
consumption of 250 MB per month per charger
Expose the area holding the SIM card hardware by unlatching the cover. The SIM card sits next to the Ethernet connection
(see STEP 9). Slide the micro SIM card into slot. (SIM card to be supplied by the service provider).
The SIM card socket is spring loaded. Slide the SIM card from the bottom upward into the slot until it stays in place.
To remove/replace the SIM card, press the SIM card upward and it will “spring” down and out of the slot.
STEP 6 Connect Ethernet
- Residential and
Commercial Units
(Figure 8) NOTE: The Ethernet cable connector should NOT be on the Ethernet cable when it is pushed through the rubberized gland.
This gland will not self-seal if the connector is pushed through the rubberized gland and the NEMA 4 rating will be lost.
Push the Ethernet cable through the rubberized gland and snake it up through the back to the opening. Connect the
Ethernet RJ45 plug to the cable. Insert the RJ45 plug from the bottom up into the Ethernet port.
