Abstract

These Recommended Practices Apply to Facilities • That store, handle, and dispense Class I (e.g., gasoline, CNG, LNG, LP-Gas, Hydrogen) and Class II Motor fuels (e.g., diesel). • That install and operate Electric Vehicle Level 2 chargers and/or DC Fast Chargers (DCFC). • That serve light and medium duty electric vehicles. These Recommended Practices Do Not Apply to • The installation and integration of a renewable energy source such as solar panels with the EV charging system. • Marina and aviation facilities • The installation and operation of Level 1 chargers • The installation of EV chargers at residences • The installation of EV chargers at facilities that serve heavy-duty electric vehicles Electrical Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) Ownership. Fueling facility owners/operators who are considering installing EVSE on their facilities may elect to purchase the EVSE or lease property to a third-party who will own and operate the EVSE. Choosing between purchasing the EVSE or leasing property to a third-party depends on various factors like available resources and long-term business plans. Important to this decision are: • The selection of the EV chargers to be installed and the infrastructure and installation requirements. • Planning and design considerations such as the location and area needed for the EVSE, the EV charging area and ingress and egress to the EV charging area, climate and other environmental considerations, and customer accessibility. • Operational requirements such as EVSE commissioning and testing, safety considerations, employee training, and maintenance requirements. In the case of a purchase, the information presented in this document will help: • develop the capital and operational cost estimate • define operational and maintenance requirements, and • support the acquisition of tax and other government incentives. In the case of a lease, the information presented in this document will help: • define the lease area • identify facility access and use requirements • develop operational agreements (hours of operation, emergency response, service reporting and response, up-time requirements), and • develop information sharing needs (usage, customer info, operational data). Regardless of whether the EVSE is purchased or leased, the information provided in this document is important to consider when planning the design and installation of EV chargers as well as to ensure a successful implementation of the EVSE at the fueling facility. Purpose. The purpose of this document is to provide a basic reference that conveys authoritative guidance on the design and installation of EV chargers and information to support the maintenance and operation of electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) collocated with motor fuel storage handling, and dispensing equipment at a fueling facility. This document offers recommendations for materials, designs, and installation procedures suitable for a wide variety of light and medium duty vehicle EV charging environments, including: • Attended motor fuel dispensing facilities, • Unattended motor fuel dispensing facilities, and • Fleet motor fuel dispensing facilities. This document is not intended to serve as a basic instruction manual. Because installation of EVSE system equipment is a specialized craft, it is assumed that persons using this publication for reference purpose will have a fundamental comprehension of the basics of essential procedures for earthwork, concrete placement, electrical installation and related construction techniques.
