Understanding EV Charging Systems

Before installing an electric vehicle charger, it’s essential to understand the fundamentals of how these devices work. Known technically as Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), EV chargers serve as the bridge between the power source and your EV, converting electrical energy into a form that can be stored in the vehicle’s battery.

These chargers convert alternating current (AC) from your home or business into direct current (DC), which the EV battery requires. By understanding how different types of EV chargers operate, you can make informed decisions about the best equipment to keep your vehicle charged and road-ready.

EV chargers are available in different levels, each offering various charging speeds:

Level 1 Chargers: These chargers connect to a standard 120-volt household outlet, providing a convenient charging option for many EV owners without requiring special installations. However, they charge slowly, adding about 4-5 miles of range per hour. This makes them ideal for overnight charging or topping up, but less suitable for those with high daily mileage requirements.
Level 2 Chargers: Operating on a 240-volt power supply, Level 2 chargers offer a significant upgrade in charging speed, providing approximately 10-60 miles of range per hour. They are suitable for home installations with the necessary electrical setup and are commonly found in workplaces and public charging stations. Level 2 chargers strike a balance between speed and convenience, fitting the needs of most daily drivers.
DC Fast Chargers: These high-powered chargers are usually located at public charging stations and can charge an EV’s battery from 0% to 80% in 20-30 minutes. Using direct current (DC) for faster charging, they are ideal for long trips where quick recharges are necessary. DC Fast Chargers provide a rapid and efficient way to get back on the road.
