V4.1 Option2 (EV-ready infrastructure) parameters of providing raceways?

Our project vies for this credit and chose to pursue Option 2 Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure.

We need to make 8 parking spaces EV ready. These 8 spaces are scattered 2 spaces per basement parking floor.

In the guidelines, it says: "The raceway shall originate at the main service or subpanel and shall terminate into a listed cabinet, box or enclosure in close proximity to the proposed location of the EV space."

1. Can we just have a sufficient breaker provision inside the typical Electrical Room and with space ready for future installation of panel and containment works (if ever it will be physically pushed-thru), and still be considerably compliance to the LEED?

2. If not, are there parameters for "close proximity" of a subpanel termination?

Thank you.

Hi Ronnel. I am looking for this answer. What did you end up doing?
