How to install a wallbox

1
Choose a location

Ideally this should be close to your electrical panel and also close to where  you park your vehicle.

2
Check electrical compatibility

Ensure your electrical system can support an Ohme Wallbox. (Check manufacturer’s specifications for details). If necessary, consult with a qualified electrician to upgrade your system.

3
Mounting your wallbox

Mount your wallbox securely to the wall using appropriate hardware, ensuring that it is at a suitable height and position for easy access.

4
Connect wiring

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to connect the wiring from the electrical panel to the wallbox. This may involve running wires through a conduit, installing a junction box, or using cable clamps.

5
Install plug or hardwire

Depending on the model of Ohme Wallbox, you may either have to hardwire it directly to an electrical supply or install a plug connection. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for your specific model.
