New EV Charger Protection Barriers Launched by Charge-M8

Charge-M8, specialists in EV charging, are excited to present their newest selection of EV charger protection barriers, engineered to defend valuable EV charging stations against accidental vehicle impacts and to comply with UK regulatory standards.

Featuring six innovative products, including steel quad/tri post barriers, steel U barriers in both narrow and wide options, and rubber wheel stops in two sizes, this assortment is priced from just £29.97 to £268.97.

With Charge-M8, ensuring the safety and longevity of your critical EV charging infrastructure is now straightforward. Besides offering these products for sale, Charge-M8 also provides a comprehensive installation and securing service to guarantee the robust protection and safety of your EV charging solutions for years to come.

The BS IET Wiring Regulations 18th Edition, under codes AG2-AG3, mandate the installation of reinforced protection in areas at risk of medium to high impact. Furthermore, the IET Code of Practice for the Installation of EV Charging Equipment stipulates that publicly accessible charging equipment must be shielded against impacts of at least AG2 severity, as per BS76741 (18th Edition). Charge-M8’s recommended approach is to employ heavy-duty tyre stops as an initial line of defence, supplemented by impact barriers as a secondary precaution for scenarios where tyre stops are overlooked or when the vehicle’s overhang surpasses their protective scope.

While these barriers are crafted with the protection of EV equipment in mind, their utility extends to a variety of uses, such as marking out spaces or creating safety zones, making them ideal for application in warehouses, storage facilities, industrial plants, and car parks.

The full range is available for immediate online ordering.
