The EV-ACT5006T spec sheet is short, and every line on it has a job. Input: single-phase 208–240 V. Output: up to 48 A, which is about 11.5 kW at 240 V, through a NACS connector on a 7.6 m cable. Protection and compliance lines: an IP65/IP66 enclosure and ETL, FCC and CE marks. Read in that order — what your building must supply, what the car receives, and what the ratings promise — it tells you whether the charger fits your panel, your car and your climate.
Key Takeaways
- Input 208–240 V single-phase and a 60 A breaker are the installation facts behind the 48 A headline.
- Output follows the supply — about 11.5 kW at 240 V, about 10 kW at 208 V — and the car decides how much it accepts.
- The protection lines for this model are the IP65/IP66 enclosure and the ETL, FCC and CE marks — verify certificates for the exact model.
Input Lines: What Your Building Must Supply
The input line reads 208–240 V, single-phase — the supply a North American home or small building will offer this charger. The number that follows from it decides the installation: charging is a continuous load, so the NEC sizes the breaker at 125% of the charger’s current — a 60 A breaker at the full 48 A, as our guide to breaker sizes for EV chargers sets out. The sheet also gives two connection forms, hard-wired or a NEMA 14-50 plug, and the two have to agree: the charger’s configured output must match its circuit, a setting your electrician confirms at installation, not one to assume from the headline figure.
Output Lines: What the Car Actually Receives
Output is where spec sheets reward arithmetic. Power is voltage multiplied by current, so the same 48 A gives about 11.5 kW on a 240 V supply and about 10 kW on a 208 V supply — the “11.5–12 kW” headline is the top of that range, not a promise at every address. Both sit inside the U.S. DOT’s Level 2 band of 7–19 kW. The second half of the output story is the car: 48 A is a ceiling the charger offers, and the car’s onboard charger decides how much of it to take, as our explainer on how many amps an EV charger needs sets out. The connector line reads NACS, on a 7.6 m (25 ft) cable — the reach that decides where on the wall the unit can live relative to the car’s charge port.
Protection Lines: The Enclosure Rating and the Marks
For this model, the protection story is the enclosure rating plus the certification marks — a shorter list than marketing pages imply, and the honest one to read.
| Line on the sheet | What it means | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| IP65 / IP66 | Dust-tight (the 6) and resistant to water jets (the 5 and 6) under the IEC 60529 code | That the rating covers the installed unit and mounting follows the manual — see our IP ratings guide |
| ETL | Listed by an OSHA-recognized testing laboratory (NRTL) for the North American market | The certificate names this exact model, not a sibling |
| FCC | Meets U.S. rules for radio-frequency emissions from its electronics | Relevant where the unit is sold in the U.S.; a compliance line, not a performance figure |
| CE | The maker’s conformity marking for the European market | That the variant you buy is the one the mark and paperwork cover |
What the sheet does not do is itemise internal protective devices beyond the published lines. If a specific internal protection matters to your project, ask for the certificate behind the marks — the verify-don’t-assume rule our buyer’s guide to reading any EV charger datasheet applies to every brand, including this one.
The Sheet in One Place
The full specification lives on the EV-ACT5006T product page: 48 A wall charger, single-phase 208–240 V input, up to 11.5–12 kW output, NACS connector on a 7.6 m cable, hard-wired or NEMA 14-50P connection, IP65/IP66 enclosure, ETL, FCC and CE marks, and EVDANCE’s 3-year standard warranty. Read against your panel, supply voltage and car, those lines are the whole buying decision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the EV-ACT5006T 11.5 kW or 12 kW?
Both describe the same unit at different voltages: 48 A at 240 V is about 11.5 kW, and on a 208 V supply the same current gives about 10 kW.
Does 48 A need a 60 A breaker?
Yes: charging is a continuous load, and the NEC sizes the breaker at 125% of the charger’s current, so 48 A takes a 60 A breaker.
Can the EV-ACT5006T be installed outdoors?
The enclosure is rated IP65/IP66, the ratings intended for outdoor equipment. Placement and local rules still apply, so have the installer confirm the position.
