What happens here

Unbox the Level 2 EV charger. Following the manufacturer's instructions, mount the charger securely to the exterior wall at the designated location, typically near the end of the conduit run. Ensure it's level and at an appropriate height for usability (usually 4 to 5 feet from the ground). Once mounted, open the charger's wiring compartment. Connect the two hot wires (usually black and red) from the conduit to the corresponding terminals in the charger, and connect the ground wire (bare copper or green) to the ground terminal. Ensure all connections are tight, often requiring specific torque settings as per manufacturer's specifications. Close and secure the wiring compartment cover.

Goal: Securely install and electrically connect the EV charging unit
