For secure mounting, you will want to install
your charger on a vertical wall stud or on a
solid wall with appropriate mounting anchors.
For the placement of your charger, consider
how you will normally park your car, the
location of the vehicle’s charge port, and the
length of the charging cable (25 feet/750cm).
NEMA 14-50
Prepare the charger for
installation
NOTE: You should always have enough
slack in the charging cable so as not to apply
tension to the cable or the cable connections.
Before getting started, carefully lift the charger
from the packaging, remove the cardboard
covering the cables, and carefully unfasten the
plastic cable ties on the EV cable bundle. Leave
the cables in the box until needed to ensure they
do not get damaged during installation.
Check the product label to identify the model/
version of your charger. Make note of the serial
number (SN) and unique identification number
(UID) as you will need these to complete the
registration of your charger.
If you already have a NEMA outlet, ensure that:
• It complies with local electrical codes.
• It has a designated circuit breaker and
electrical wiring that are dimensioned
appropriately.
When installing a
NEMA 14-50 outlet, be sure the
ground pin is facing down as shown in the diagram
on the left.

• Ensure you have the correct permits for this
electrical installation.
• Remember that the NEMA outlet must be
placed on the left side of the charger as
shown on Page 8.
• Keep in mind that the power supply cable
length is limited to 12” (30cm).
• Ensure the electrical panel supports a 240V
dedicated circuit with a new, dedicated two-
pole circuit breaker.
• CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, connect
only to a circuit with a branch circuit
overcurrent protection of 50A in accordance
with ANSI/NFPA 70 (US) C22.2 NO.280-13
(Canada).
Important recommendations
Cable length
12” (30 cm)
Refer to one of the corresponding sub-sections below for an existing NEMA outlet or for installing a new NEMA outlet.
With NEMA cable installations, be sure to take
into consideration the 12” (30cm) length of
NEMA cable when positioning your charger in
relation to the NEMA receptacle.
For hardwire installations, the wiring may use
either the rear or bottom access ports in your
charger. Be sure to note that the power supply
wiring and conduit (if used) will need to be
placed on the left side of your charger.
We recommend installing your charger as
shown in the diagram on the left. Note that the
minimum installation height must be at least
18” (46cm), measured from the bottom of your
charger. Wallbox recommends an installation
height of 50-67” (130-170cm).
Before installing your charger, be sure to obtain any required permits and/or approvals in
accordance with applicable codes, regulations, and ordinances for electrical installations.
