EV chargers, or electric vehicle supply equipment, are arguably the most crucial part of owning an electric vehicle. For new EV owners who spent more than a decade driving gas-powered cars, learning about charging port and connector types can be confusing. But don't fret, here's a handy guide to teach you all you need to know for your charging needs.
A Level 1 charging station is the simplest and has the slowest charging speed of the three charger types. These chargers can be simply plugged into your standard outlet. While convenient and low-cost, this charging cable uses 110-120-volt AC power, so expect slow charging for your EV battery.
This translates to about 4 to 6 miles of range per hour, which could be enough for your daily commute. To put this into perspective, an EV with 200 miles of range will take around 35 to 50 hours to fully charge.
Level 2 charging stations can either be plugged into 220-240-volt outlets or be hardwired into your home's electrical panel.
Plug-in Level 2 chargers can be plugged directly into three-pronged NEMA 14-50 outlets typically used for RVs, washers, dryers, and other major appliances. However, this kind of setup is limited to 32 to 40 Amps.
Because of this, most EV drivers opt to install a Level 2 electric car charging station in their garage. This type of EV charger installation needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit to supply electrical current in your garage. Such a circuit will let you hardwire your own electric vehicle charger at home, but the 240-volt socket will also let you plug in a portable unit.
Though upgrading your home's electrical panel could be costly, Level 2 chargers are significantly faster and more efficient than Level 1 chargers, giving EVs up to 200 miles of driving range in under 10 hours.
