Connect Wiring

CAUTION: Use copper conductors only.

The CP6000 is fitted with up to 30mA Type A RCDClosed Residual Current Device and 6 mA DC leakage protection per port.

If local codes require the use of supplementary residual current protection for fault protection upstream, ChargePoint recommends using an appropriately sized Type A, Type F, or Type B RCDClosed Residual Current Device with 100mA tripping current to avoid false trips.

Use breakers best suited for the maximum current draw set per station.

Use new circuit breakers only.

Ensure all power and ground connections (especially those at the breaker) are clean, tight, and torqued to specification. Remove all oxide from all conductors and terminals before connecting wiring.

The CP6000 includes overcurrent protection which disconnects the outlet if the current is more than or equal to 1.25 times the maximum current set.

The maximum wiring size permitted for single input is 25 mm2. Check local regulations.

 

CP6000 configuration includes either RCCBs or RCBOs. Configurations with RCBOs include short-circuit protection per charging port, with a nominal current of 40 A and Curve C type.

For the upstream protection breaker, ChargePoint recommends using Curve C Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBClosed Miniature Circuit Breaker) and must be rated as follows:

  • 20 A for a 16 A single or three phase charging station

  • 25 A for a 20 A single or three phase charging station

  • 32 A for a 25 A single or three phase charging station

  • 40 A for a 32 A single or three phase charging station

  • 63 A or 80 A for a 63 A three phase charging station

The MCBClosed Miniature Circuit Breaker must open all live conductors (including the Neutral).
