10 Introduction to the Wallbox eM4Single
The Wallbox eM4Single at a glance
The Wallbox eM4Single is designed as follows:
Front and rear view
The following illustration shows the front and rear of the Wallbox eM4Single.
Front Rear
1Suspension points
Use these two suspension points on the upper edge of the rear to hang the eM4Single in the mounting rail (included in delivery)
screwed to the mounting position (see “Preparing and fixing the wallbox in place” onpage27).
2Attachment points for mounting rail
The wallbox is fixed in place by screwing it into the mounting rail using the two upper attachment points (see page28). The
corresponding screws are supplied.
3Supply cable area
The supply cable area has three large grommets for inserting a power line from above, below or behind, marked A, Band C
on the drilling template.
The two smaller grommets are used for inserting a data cable for communication within a charging group or to lay a control
cable in accordance with VDE AR-N 4100. These two inlets are marked DATA and EXT. CONTROL on the drilling template.
All grommets in the supply cable area are designed as "push-out" membranes and can be pierced directly with the cable (see
“Inserting the power and data cables” onpage24).
4Housing cover
The housing cover protects the internal electronic components (see next figure) from unauthorised access and must always be
closed and locked during operation. The housing cover is locked/unlocked via the RCCB flap 12 of the power module 15 (right
side) and the key opening 8on the underside (left side).
5Status display with RFID reader
The circular status indicator shows the states of the charge point by means of a multi-coloured LED ring. The RFID reader
module for authorising the charging process is located centrally behind the status indicator (see also point 16 ).
6Type 2 charging socket
The power module 15 of the Wallbox eM4Single has a type 2 charging socket for connecting an IEC 62196-1 and IEC 62196-2
certified charging cable, which can be purchased as an accessory from ABL (see “Accessories” onpage19).
7Wall mounting point
The wallbox is fixed in place by screwing it into the wall using the two lower attachment points (see page28). The corre-
sponding screws are supplied.
