EV charging, architecture and wallbox integration

A charging point is increasingly part of the building, parking area and user experience. For this reason the wallbox, its support, cable route and surrounding protection should be considered together rather than as unrelated elements added at the end.

Outdoor installation starts with the wallbox requirements

The wallbox manufacturer’s instructions, IP rating, ventilation, maintenance spaces and electrical protections remain the reference. A VoltaCover structure does not change these characteristics and does not make the wallbox waterproof. Depending on the installation, it can reduce direct exposure of exposed parts to sun, driving rain, dirt and deposits while helping organise the charging point.

Six products, six different roles

• Cyber – compact upper shielding where visual impact must remain minimal.
• Wallbox Cover – a clean, classic wall-mounted solution.
• Crystal Shell – upper and frontal shielding in darkened polycarbonate with integrated structural rear support.
• Wallbox Cover Plus – protection plus a 6 cm rear technical compartment for compatible cable management and installation provisions.
• Stand – freestanding structure with an internal technical compartment where no suitable wall exists.
• Vela – premium freestanding architectural solution for visible, representative charging points.

The support is part of the project

In a freestanding installation, the structure is not simply a pole. Fixing or foundation, cable entry, maintenance access, wallbox position, user ergonomics and the relationship with paving, façade and parking layout all affect the final result. These aspects must be defined according to the site, with the electrical configuration handled by qualified professionals.

Cable management matters

A good installation should allow the user to connect and disconnect the vehicle comfortably without forcing the cable around the structure or blocking controls and service areas. Cable entry, bending radius, connector movement and access for future maintenance should be checked before the structure is selected.

Residential, hospitality and business contexts

VoltaCover solutions can be evaluated for homes, apartment buildings, hotels, residences, company parking areas, showrooms, dealerships and other projects where the charging point is visible and must integrate with the surrounding architecture.

One system: protection, support, cable and design

The most coherent result is achieved when mechanical protection, support, cable route and aesthetic integration are considered as a single installation system while preserving the wallbox manufacturer’s requirements.
