electric vehicle charger types

Electric vehicle charger types are divided into DC input and AC input according to the input characteristics of the power supply equipment. They are classified according to the output current type of the power supply equipment, according to the use environment, according to the output voltage, according to the installation method, according to electric shock protection, and according to the charging mode.

The types of electric vehicle chargers are divided into industrial environments and non-industrial environments according to the installation and use places. They are divided into shared types and dedicated types according to the objects of use. They are divided into floor-standing and wall-mounted types according to the installation methods. They are divided into integrated and split types according to the structural forms. , according to the number of vehicle plugs (number of charging guns), it is divided into one machine for one charge or one machine for multiple charges.

There are currently five major electric vehicle charging standards in the world, including Chinese standard GB/T, European standard CCS2, American standard CCS1, Japanese standard CHAdeMO and Tesla standard NACS.

CCS is a standard jointly launched by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), and eight major German and American automobile manufacturers. It is divided into CCS1 (Type 1 American standard) and CCS2 (Type 2 European standard).

The software part of CCS1 and CCS2 is exactly the same, but the interface definition of the charging gun is different.

The full name of NACS is North American Charging Standard, or NACS for short. It is essentially Tesla’s original exclusive TPC charging specification. It was renamed on November 11, 2022. At that time, Tesla announced on the official website that it would open its charging interface standard, and it is hereby renamed. The "North American Charging Standard" has the potential to dominate the world.
