What procedures are required for a car charging station?
2 Answers
Individuals who want to set up a car charging pile need to meet two basic conditions: their own fixed parking space and a power supply. If the power supply capacity is sufficient, the distance between the parking space and the power source should be considered. If it is very close (e.g., within 30 meters), there is generally no major issue; if the distance is longer, it is necessary to check whether underground or overhead wiring is required along the way, which involves electrical safety issues. This matter needs to be negotiated with the property management. Relevant information about car range is as follows: 1. Introduction: Car range refers to the maximum distance that can be driven with the remaining gasoline in the tank at a fuel-saving speed, mainly calculated automatically by the car's computer based on the current fuel consumption. 2. Influencing factors: The car's range is affected by four factors: charging equipment, tire pressure, whether the vehicle is overtaking, and whether it frequently stops and starts abruptly.
I've been working on charging station installation for a while, and the process is far from simple: First, you need to find a suitable location and confirm its availability, avoiding crowded areas. Next, you must apply for permits from local government departments, such as construction permits and land use approvals, which require preparing a pile of materials like site plans and safety plans. Then, you need to contact the power supply company to apply for electricity access—they will conduct on-site surveys to determine capacity expansion solutions and ensure stable power supply. After that comes the safety compliance part, which includes passing environmental assessments and electrical safety tests, such as ensuring proper lightning protection grounding and firefighting facilities are in place. Finally, you must register for a business license and periodic maintenance registration. The entire process takes at least three to six months, and the costs are quite high, including site rental fees and equipment costs starting at 50,000 to 60,000 RMB. However, once completed, it provides convenience for EV owners to charge and helps promote the development of green transportation.
