In recent years, the use of electric vehicles has grown in popularity as a means of reducing carbon emissions and for the unique experience of driving a vehicle without a traditional engine under the hood. Therefore, for the widespread use of this technology, the installation of electric vehicle charging stations is necessary.
The physical process of building a charging station, which is used to recharge electric vehicles, is referred to as electric vehicle charger (EV) installation. Fortunately, with charging options that are plenty, owning an electric vehicle and keeping it with enough juice for the road is becoming increasingly easier. While the type of charger chosen for an installation depends on the requirements of the electric vehicle, they all function by transferring energy from an electricity source into an EV's battery pack.
Types of Charging Installation Options for Electric Vehicles
Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast chargers are the three primary categories of electric vehicle charging stations. Each type of charger is appropriate for different situations and demands.
The most basic kind of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations are Level 1 chargers. They normally provide an output of 12 amps at 6-8 kW per hour and need a 120 V outlet to operate. The drawback is that because of their lower power output levels, these units typically charge your battery significantly more slowly than higher-level EV chargers. When used in in parking lots and residential areas, it is perfect for overnight charging instances.
A higher voltage 3-phase system or a specialized circuit breaker panel with 208-240V AC input are both necessary for Level 2 chargers, which are more powerful than Level 1 chargers. Depending on the type, outputs can range from 10 to 50 kW, although they often hover around 20 kW/hour, meaning they can recharge an average EV in approximately 4-6 hours as opposed to 8 to 12+ hours with a Level 1 charging unit. Businesses frequently employ these units to provide clients quicker charging periods and the capacity to handle numerous automobiles at once without overloading circuits or blowing fuses, as with some Level 1 applications.
The fastest recharge times and highest power outputs are provided by DC fast chargers, but they are more expensive than other options and require a direct current (DC) source, which is typically provided by powerful batteries like those found in larger commercial building complexes or industrial sites where there is space for them. Model-specific recharge times range from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on how low the battery of your electric car was before you started charging it. This makes them ideal if you need a rapid boost while traveling far from home.
