What requirements does the location of the chargers require?
Before carrying out an installation for the recharging of electric vehicles, there are several aspects that must be taken into account, both at a technical and administrative level, some of them are listed below:
General
- Determine the scope of application, whether in shopping centers, hotels, parking lots at work places, etc.
- Analyze the required demand, specifically how many charging stations you want to establish. This requirement may be established by project definition or required by prescriptive regulations.
Technical requirements
- Check the power available in the installation to be able to supply all the defined charging stations. In the event that there is not enough power available in the installation, the possibility of installing an intelligent device that manages the demand should be studied or, ultimately, requesting an extension of power from the electricity company.
- Select the type of charging stations required. They may vary depending on the connector to be used, the type of power supply, whether they are for indoor or outdoor use, etc.
- Carry out the installation at all times under the applicable regulations, both for the materials used and for the required documentation, be it this technical design or project report.
Requirements administrative
- Consult your electricity company and / or qualified companies in the field of infrastructures for electric vehicle recharging (IRVE) on all aspects to take into account for the installation of charging stations, as well as for the achievement and processing of the existing aids.
