Installation Configurations3.2.
Powermat’s Charging Spot 3.1 could be installed in either a surface-mounted or a sub-
surface configuration. Due to the required milling accuracy, and necessary permanent
spot marking, Powermat does not endorse on-site sub-surface installations.

Drilling guidelines
4. Drilling guidelines
1. Step 1 - mark the spots locations on the table
1. Make sure it’s according to the quantity requested per table
2. Mark all the locations before drilling and make sure all are aligned vertically and
horizontally
3. Make sure not to mark a place above a leg or a bracket
4. When marking the drill locations use painters tape, this will prevent surface
chipping while drilling see Figure 1: Marking the Charging Spots location
Figure 1: Marking the Charging Spots location
Figure 2: Drilling over a bracket
2. Step 2 - Verify again table thickness
The charging spot can be installed in tables between ¾” to 3” (19.05 mm – 76.2 mm)

Drilling guidelines
3. Step 3 –Drilling
General guidelines:
a. Drilling can be done with a hand tool
b. Make sure the hole saw is facing exactly 90 degrees to the surface
c. It is recommended to use a bit as part of the hole saw
d. Make sure drilling area is covered with painters tape to avoid surface chipping
see Figure 1
NOTE: After drilling, make sure to clean burrs and splinters around top ream in order
to ensure proper fit.
NOTE: Charging Spot requires a wooden substrate underneath any stone surface

*for on-site hand tools, masking of the hole with
painters tape and the use of a pilot bit is recommended
Off-Site Drilling:
TCT hole saw –with shop bench-press
CNC/ router –shop only
Diamond grit hole saw–to be used with a proper
jig
