Thread: Charging Station standards

  1. #611
    I predict that over the next 3 years ( from right now ) less than 5% of the real EVs sold in the US will have the SAE DC charge port. ( Not including EREVs, if you include those, it will be even less )

    With Elon and the Model X on the cover page, yet completely absent from the document! Tsk... I wonder if that's because TM isn't providing standard connectors.

    Looks like there is a shelf for a phonebook.

    Instead of, apparently, some way to hold the cable in loops. So that will be either short or on the floor.

    I suppose it could retract into that top portion.

    ew EVSE Charge Station:
    Charge Station is designed to supply 240v AC power to Electric vehicles according to the J1772 standard. Charge Station receives power from the breaker box to a 240 volt 30 amp receptacle where it plugs into. It can also be hard wired from the breaker box. For maximum safety GFI Circuit Breakers should be used for the Charge Station supply.

    This Charge Station is set up for 25-amp operation from a 30-amp breaker, but I can set one up for any level-2 current requirements. You will receive E-mail and phone support as needed.

    Description:
    • Level-2 Charge Station
    • Amps 25 (30 amp breaker)
    • J1772 compliant with 20ft Connector for electric vehicle charging
    • HxWxD 10x8x 4 inches
    • Indoor mounting (outdoor mounting with switch modification)
    • Weatherproof NEMA 4 Housing
    • Lighted power switch and Status indicators.
    • Power Source 208-240 Volt AC
    • Plugs into 3 or 4 prong 240 volt 30 amp Dryer Receptacle
    • UL-Listed Components

    Why would one buy a home-built unit when you can buy a UL tested one for the same price from a known manufacturer?

    The fact that this one is set up for 25A and suggests putting it on a 30A breaker (does not meet code, 24A is max continuous load allowed on a 30A breaker) does not instill confidence.
