Before You Install
You must be a licensed electrician and complete an online training class
(
http://chargepointuniversity.netexam.com/) to become a ChargePoint Certified Installer, and to
get a login for ChargePoint. If you do not complete this training, you will be unable to complete the
installation process.
DANGER: RISK OF SHOCK

Site Prerequisites
Ensure that the location of the installation site is appropriate and you are ready to install the CPF25:
• The CPF25 must be located within 150’ line-of sight from a CPGW (ChargePoint Gateway).
• Ensure that the appropriate wiring, circuit protection, and metering is in place at the installation location by
reviewing the specifications, wiring diagrams, and grounding requirements described in Appendix A.
• Prepare the installation site by following the instructions in Appendix B. The mounting template for the
pedestal is stapled into the center fold of this document and a PDF version is available at
http://www.chargepoint.com/support-guides/. Ensure the PDF version is accurate by printing it at 100% scale
on 11” x 17” paper and then verifying at least one dimension.

Install the Pedestal
Before installing the pedestal, you must prepare the installation site.
For detailed instructions, see Appendix B.
5/8” nut
and
washers
Step 1: Mount and Level the Pedestal
• Pull servicing wiring up through the conduit, leaving
approximately 6’ extending out of the conduit.
• Place the pedestal over the conduit, ensuring the
long curved edge of the base plate (which is the
cut-out for a cable management kit - CMK) is
located at the back of the station.
• Ensure the pedestal is level.
• Fasten the pedestal to the bolts extending into the
base plate using the 5/8” nuts and washers and the
1/2” drive torque wrench with 15/16” deep socket, as
shown.

• Adjust the lower nuts as necessary to ensure the
mounting pole is level.
• When level, tighten the nuts on top of the base
plate to at least 90 ft-lbs (122 Nm).
• Route the service wiring up through the pedestal.
IMPORTANT ! Ensure the pedestal is level by adjusting
the nuts underneath the base plate. Verify accuracy
after each adjustment by positioning the level at various
locations on the base plate and on the pedestal.

If using a cord management kit, use the back pedestal cover
with the indentation:
If not using a cord management kit, use the back pedestal
cover without the indentation:
8-32 x 3/8”
screws (4)
8-32 x 3/8”
screws (4)
Step 2: Install Pedestal Covers
• Position the two-piece pedestal covers over the
bottom of the pedestal, as shown.
• Insert the two 8-32 x 3/8” screws into each side
of the pedestal, as shown.
• Tighten the screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
NOTE: As illustrated, the cover you use at the back
of the pedestal depends on whether your station
includes a Cord Management Kit (CMK). Discard the
extra cover.

Install Bracket and CMK
IMPORTANT !
This section describes how to attach the mounting bracket and its associated components to the pedestal.
Follow the steps associated with the particular CPF25 model you are installing:
Single Station (no Cord Management) - see page 3-3
Single Station with Cord Management - see page 3-5
Dual Station (no Cord Management) - see page 3-7
Dual Station with Cord Management - see page 3-10
Before proceeding with the installation, follow one of the preparation steps below. The preparation step is
different depending on whether your CPF25 includes the Cord Management option.
Preparation (stations without Cord Management)
Slide the spacer at the back of the pedestal upward to remove. Discard the spacer
(this spacer is required only if you are installing a cord management kit).

Discard shipping screws
To p
Bottom
When handling, always keep the top
end higher than the bottom end.
Preparation (stations with Cord Management)
If your station has a Cord Management Kit, follow these steps to prepare the CMK for mounting:
• Position the CMK packaging so its bottom is located near the base of the wall where you are installing the
charging station..
IMPORTANT: Do not unwrap the ropes.
• Remove and discard the two 3/8” drive shipping screws from the front face of the CMK.
NOTE: When you remove the shipping screws, the counterweights are free to move in either direction.
Therefore, do not tilt or carry the assembly with the top end lower than the bottom end.
• Remove the foam packaging.

3.1 Single Station (no Cord Management)
1. Remove the ground lug using a 7/16” wrench (save the 1/4”x20 screws
to reinstall).
2. Connect the ground wire from the service wiring to the ground lug, then
run a 10-gauge ground wire from the ground lug through the wiring
opening in front of the pedestal.
3. Reinstall the ground lug to the pedestal using the 7/16” wrench and the
two 1/4”x20 screws you removed.
4. Run the remaining service wiring through the opening in front of the
pedestal.
Install Bracket and CMK
5. Slide the bracket over the pedestal. The two holes at the top and two
holes at the bottom of the bracket must align with the corresponding
holes in the pedestal.
CAUTION: The bracket must slide over the service wiring. Lay the wiring
as flat as possible to prevent the wires from damage.

1. Remove the ground lug by removing its two screws using a 3/8”
socket wrench (save the screws to reinstall in step 3 below).
2. Connect the ground wire from the service wiring to the ground
lug, then run a 10-gauge ground wire from the ground lug through
the wiring opening in front of the pedestal.
3. Reinstall the ground lug to the pedestal using the 3/8” wrench
and the two screws you removed.
4. Run the remaining service wiring through the opening in front of
the pedestal.
