Inquiry
The project in question is a warehouse/retail outlet for a chain of construction supply stores. The total parking capacity is 436 stalls. We would like to provide recharge stations for electrical vehicles but presently there are no electrical cars on the market yet in this area. As a result we would only be guessing at the requirements for recharging. We propose to provide rough-ins for 120/208V up to 60A between two designated stalls in addition to regular 120V outlets, which can be used for hybrid car block heaters until such time when electrical cars will be available. We would provide 7 rough-ins, servicing 14 stalls, which is 3% of the total capacity. These stalls will be in a preferred location and will be reserved for hybrid cars in the meantime. Will this approach meet the intent of credit SS 4.3?
