Requirements
Before installing the ChargePoint Gateway, choose an appropriate location by considering the
following:
+
Power must be available at the installation site.
+
All charging stations must be located within 30.5-38 m (100-125 ft) line-of-sight.
+
The Gateway relies on an external device for overcurrent protection. The installer must
ensure the Gateway is protected by a maximum 20 A branch circuit breaker.
+
The Gateway requires a surge protector device (SPD) or surge arrester as part of the
installation to address transient overvoltages exceeding Overvoltage Category II, 2500 Vpk.
+
The Gateway must have a readily accessible disconnect device.
+
The location must receive consistently available 3G GSM network coverage. The signal
strength should be better than -90db (for example, -85db is better than -90db). To ensure
adequate signal strength in underground garages or other enclosed parking structures,
mobile network repeaters may be required.
+
NOTE: Wi-Fi signal strength between the ChargePoint Gateway and the charging stations is
strong, and signals bend (diffract) around narrow columns with low signal loss. Avoid
installations where concrete walls are located between the ChargePoint Gateway and the
CPF32 charging stations.
+
NOTE: For maximum mobile coverage, mount the ChargePoint Gateway as high as possible.
We recommend that you permanently install the ChargePoint Gateway by running service wiring
into the bottom of the Gateway using region-appropriate wire routing, and attaching it to a wall
using the supplied screws and wall anchors.
