You can generally look to a few electrical specifications of the selected chargers to appropriately size the required switchgear. A good place to start is to figure out the required circuit breaker sizes to be included in the switchgear. You will need to figure out what you need for both the individual branch circuit breakers for each charger and the main circuit breaker.

Energy theft, often referred to as “electricity diversion” or “meter tampering,” is the unauthorized consumption of electricity made by illegal connections or the bypassing of meters. This illicit practice is often hard to identify and can lead to substantial revenue losses, compromised grid integrity, and potential safety hazards.
