The growth of electric vehicles in Indonesia has been increasing since the issuance of Peraturan Presiden (PERPRES) Nomor 55 Tahun 2019 tentang Percepatan Program Kendaraan Bermotor Listrik Berbasis Baterai untuk Transportasi Jalan. The rapid growth of electric vehicles needs to be supported by the necessary infrastructure, such as charging stations. However, the relatively high cost is one of the reasons for the slow growth of charging stations in Indonesia. This research aims to design a pedestal capable of protecting the Terra AC Wallbox charger from open conditions, selecting the appropriate materials for the pedestal, and determining the production process with minimal cost. The scope of this final project is constrained to encompass the design phase that incorporates technical drawings, Bill of Materials, and installation instructions for the pedestal. The engineering design of the pedestal begins with conceptual design, followed by embodiment design, and concludes with detail design. Conceptual design involves defining the problem, identifying customer needs, and generating the selected design. Embodiment design consists of creating the product design and determining the manufacturing process. The engineering design results in a pedestal product with final dimensions of 452×168×1600 ????????3. The pedestal has an IP 56 rating, safety features to protect against vehicle collisions and electrical shocks. This engineering design also produces technical drawings and a bill of materials for the pedestal. The technical drawings and bill of materials generated from this research can serve as guidelines for producing the prototype of the pedestal.
