EV Charging Stations Updates
Email from Phillip Krein:
I wanted to update you on our EV charge infrastructure project. Tim Abrahamson supported us today from about 12:30pm to 2pm to gather circuit information in parking structures C10, C7, and B4. I owe Mike Brown an updated design report for our next-generation boxes, and of course we will not mount any new units until all is approved and Dave can inspect the setups. In the meantime, we learned the following:
In lot C10, four of our boxes can be supported without changes. The most likely plans place one each at the east and west columns on Level 2 and one each on those columns on Level 3.
In lot C7, it appears that five boxes can be supported.
In lot B4, we have chosen about all that are available (six units are in place).
For Krannert, there is one signed space where a unit can be mounted.
In F29 (the fire station and parking), it appears that four units can be supported, including three existing signed spaces.
In lot E15, there are NO receptacles that do not interfere with a walking path or equipment access path, so no units can be mounted there.
The total, including those in place, is 20 units. We are preparing 30 new units. I do have some plans for a few of them.

We did observe that nearly all of these structures have potential for additional receptacle circuits, but this would require a project with wire pulls and infrastructure changes. Since we are talking about 120 V receptacles, such a project is routine, but obviously not trivial to set up and fund.
