The importance of proper anchoring

Anchoring charging posts is crucial to ensure the stability and safety of your charging station. A well-anchored charging post withstands stresses such as weather, accidental contact with vehicles, and potential vandalism. In addition to physical stability, proper anchoring contributes to a longer lifespan of the entire charging installation by minimizing vibrations and movements that can damage both the electrical infrastructure and the pole itself.

Different types of anchoring systems

There are several types of anchoring systems available depending on the design of the charging post and the installation environment:

  • Concrete foundation: This is one of the most common anchoring systems where a concrete slab is cast directly on site. This system provides a very strong and durable base for charging posts, especially in high traffic areas or where the risk of physical impact is high.
  • Screw foundations: For locations where a faster and less invasive installation is desired, screw foundations can be an effective option. These foundations are screwed directly into the ground, reducing installation costs and time.
  • Portable anchors: For temporary installations or where flexibility in placement is needed, portable anchoring systems can be ideal. These systems allow easy relocation of the charging post without the need for extensive earthworks.

Planning and installation

Careful planning is essential before starting the installation of the charging post anchorage. It starts with choosing the right type of anchorage based on the quality of the soil and the expected loads. It is recommended to conduct a soil survey to determine the best anchoring method.

The installation of an anchorage should always be carried out by qualified professional installers. This not only ensures that the anchorage meets all technical requirements, but also that it complies with local building regulations and safety standards.

Maintenance of anchoring systems

Even the best anchoring system requires regular maintenance to maintain its effectiveness and safety. Regular inspection and maintenance of the anchorage can identify and address any problems such as corrosion or loose components before they lead to major damage.
