Additional instructions for Plug-in EVSE configurations
•
240 V plugs are specifically designed for occasional
relocation, such as moving from one home to another.
•
For personal safety, the circuit breaker must be turned off
before plugging in AND/OR unplugging 240 V appliances
(including this EVSE).
•
A high-quality industrial-grade dedicated NEMA outlet
receptacle listed to UL 498 (US) and C22.2 No. 182.3-16
(Canada) standards must be used with your plug type EVSE.
•
Check the receptacle and plug for a tight fit before use.
DO NOT use this EVSE with an extension cord or wall
•
plug adapter. Plug this EVSE directly into the receptacle.
We recommend that plug-in EVSEs remain plugged into the
receptacle.
•
Have an electrician verify all wiring to the outlet is correct
and in compliance with local code requirements before
connecting the EVSE.
•
A worn or defective receptacle can cause the plug to overheat
and become a fire hazard. Periodically touch the plug
surface during the charge session to see if it is hot. If so, we
recommend an electrician check the connection tightness and
replace the receptacle.
•
Ensure that the EVSE is mounted to the wall or placed on a
support so it does not hang from the receptacle. Receptacles
are not designed to support the weight of the EVSE.
•
The EVSE shall be installed so that the power supply cord
does not contact the floor when plugged into the outlet.
