The box holds the charger itself: the EV-ACT5006T wall unit with its 7.6 m (25 ft) NACS cable and connector attached, in the version you ordered — hardwired, or fitted with a NEMA 14-50P plug. What the box does not hold is the installation hardware for your house circuit: the breaker, wiring and receptacle are supplied by your electrician for your panel. Check the delivery against the manual’s packing list before the installer arrives, so a missing item never holds up the job.
Key Takeaways
- The box holds the charger unit and its attached 7.6 m NACS cable, in the version ordered.
- Breaker, wiring and receptacle are installation hardware supplied by your electrician.
- Check the plug style, cable and rating label against the packing list on delivery.
- Keep the manual, receipt and warranty paperwork together.
What to Look For When You Open It
A wall charger’s shipment is simpler than most buyers expect. Work through this list on delivery:
- The charger unit. One wall-mounted unit, rated 48A on 208–240V (11.5–12 kW), with the rating label showing its ETL, FCC and CE marks and IP65/IP66 rating.
- The cable and connector. The 7.6 m NACS charging cable is part of the unit, with the connector that plugs into the car. Uncoil it and check the full length for transit damage.
- The connection you ordered. The plug-in version arrives with a factory-fitted NEMA 14-50P plug; the hardwired version is made to be connected straight to the circuit by the electrician. Confirm the box matches your order — this is the one mix-up that stops an install.
- The paperwork. Keep the manual and warranty documents with the unit. EVDANCE’s standard warranty is 3 years, and the manual’s packing list is your reference if anything looks missing.
What a charger looks like part by part — enclosure, cable, connector, controls — is covered in our guide to what a home EV charger looks like.
The Installation Hardware That Is Not in the Box
Buyers often expect a fitting kit for the electrical side. That hardware belongs to your house, not to the charger, and it is sized on site:
| Item | In the box? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Charger unit with 7.6 m NACS cable | Yes | The product itself, in the version ordered |
| NEMA 14-50P plug | Plug-in version only | Factory-fitted; the hardwired version has none |
| 60 A breaker | No | Electrician supplies it; NEC treats charging as a continuous load, so 48 A calls for a 60 A breaker |
| Circuit wiring and conduit | No | Measured and supplied for your panel-to-garage run |
| NEMA 14-50 receptacle | No | Needed only for the plug-in version; ask for an industrial-grade one |
| Wall fixings | Check the packing list | The unit is wall-mounted; your installer can supply fixings suited to your wall |
The full sequence of the install itself — panel checks, the circuit, mounting and inspection — is in the wallbox installation guide.
If Something Looks Wrong
Photograph the box and the rating label before the install is booked. If the plug style does not match the order, the cable is damaged, or the manual’s packing list shows an item you cannot find, contact the seller first — swapping a wrong version is simple before it is wired in and awkward afterwards. Keep the receipt and delivery documents with the warranty paperwork; rebate claims and warranty claims both ask for them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the breaker included with the EV-ACT5006T?
No. The breaker belongs to your home’s circuit, not the charger shipment. For the 48A hardwired version your electrician fits a 60 A breaker, following the NEC continuous-load rule of 125% of the charger’s current.
Does it come with a charging cable, or is that separate?
The cable is part of the unit: a 7.6 m (25 ft) NACS cable with its connector, attached at the factory. There is nothing to buy separately to start charging.
What if my box has the wrong version — plug-in instead of hardwired?
Do not have it installed and hope for the best. Contact the seller to exchange it before the electrician’s visit; the two versions are ordered differently and the circuit work differs.
