What happens here

Once the hole is drilled, feed the electrical conduit through the opening. Then, attach a metal electrical junction box to the wall, ensuring it aligns perfectly with the conduit entry point. Subsequently, carefully pull the pre-stripped electrical cable through the conduit and into the junction box, allowing sufficient slack for making future connections inside the EV charger unit. The video shows the cable being pulled through a flexible conduit.

Goal: Route electrical cable to the EV charger mounting location

Tools and materials

  • Electrical Cable — Supplying power to the EV charger. Typically 6 AWG or 8 AWG for high-power EV chargers
  • Electrical Conduit — Protecting and routing the electrical cable through the wall
  • Fish Tape — Assisting in pulling the electrical cable through the conduit
  • Metal Electrical Junction Box — Housing the electrical connections and providing a secure entry point for the EV charger's wiring
  • Screwdriver — Securing the junction box to the wall
