Types of EV Chargers

As an EV driver, understanding your vehicle's compatible charger types is crucial for safe and convenient charging, at home and on the road. Here are the three EV chargers frequently used in the EV industry:

  • Level 1 Charger Level 1 charger uses a standard 120V household outlet, offering the slowest charging speed, adding a few miles of range per hour. It uses the SAE J1772 (J-plug) connector, making it suitable for overnight charging or short trips.
  • Level 2 Charger Level 2 chargers utilize 240V outlets (like dryer outlets) for faster charging than Level 1. It uses SAE J1772 (J-plug) connectors and is ideal for home and public charging stations. Before purchasing a Level 2 home EV charger, make sure to check your car’s battery type and size and your home’s electrical capacity.
  • Level 3 (DC Fast Charger) Level 3, or DC fast charging, is the fastest EV charging method, using high-voltage DC power to rapidly add range. It utilizes CCS connectors for the majority of non-Tesla EVs, while Tesla vehicles use their own proprietary NACS connector. Level 3 chargers are usually used in public charging stations for long-distance travel and quick recharges.
