Circuit Breaker
NOTE: Refer to the National Electric Code
(NEC) and local electrical codes when
installing the High Power Wall Connector. If in
doubt, check with your local building electrical
inspector.
To determine the type of electrical breaker
you need, examine the distribution panel/
circuit breaker box to identify the amperage
available at the installation site.
The High Power Wall Connector has internal
DIP switches that allow you to adjust its
operating current based on the type of circuit
breaker being used (40 to 100 amps):
To install a breaker:
•
Turn off AC power to the distribution
panel/circuit breaker box.
•
Install the circuit breaker appropriate for
your installation site and vehicle charging
requirements.
•
Run the L1, L2 and Ground wires from the
distribution panel/circuit breaker box to
the location where you are installing the
High Power Wall Connector. Always run
wiring to the left side of a wall stud.
