Wiring a 50 Amp 240 Volt Plug For C8000 or C10000 Charger

Objective

To correctly wire a 50 amp 240 volt plug for charging cords to ensure safe and efficient charging for devices like the C10,000 or C8000 charger.

Key Steps

  1. Strip off the ends of the charging cords using wire strippers, leaving enough exposed wire to fit into the terminal.

  2. Twist together the black and red (or black and white) wires from the charging cords.

  3. Open the 50 amp plug and identify the ground, hot, hot, and neutral terminals. (Optional: Remove the neutral prong as it will not be used.)

  4. Connect the twisted black and red wires from the charging cords to the hot terminals on the plug.

  5. Twist the wires tightly and insert them into the corresponding terminals in the plug.

  6. Reinsert the prongs and terminals into the plug, ensuring a secure fit.

  7. Manage the excess cable inside the plug for better cable management.

  8. Replace the cap and screw the plug back together securely.

  9. Reinstall the clamp to prevent the cables from pulling out of the terminals.

Cautionary Notes

  • Ensure the plug is disconnected from the power source before starting the wiring process.

  • Double-check the wiring to ensure the black and red wires are connected to the correct terminals.

  • Be cautious of tight spaces while working on the wiring to avoid damaging the cables or terminals.

  • Do not use the neutral terminal on the plug as it is not needed for this setup.

Tips for Efficiency

  • Twist the wires tightly before inserting them into the terminals for a secure connection.

  • Cut back excess cable if needed for easier cable management inside the plug.

  • Straighten the cables inside the plug for a neat and organized finish.

  • Verify that the cables are securely connected and the clamp is in place to prevent accidental disconnection.
