As an expert in the charging pile industry, EVDANCE has rich experience in the development and manufacturing of intelligent EV charging solutions. This is where we turn our engineering insights into knowledge and share them with the global EV community.
Usually a specialist charger factory, not the car company. The bundled charger is an OEM product — here is what that means for warranty and replacement.
CCS charging is a negotiated session: car and charger agree limits before current flows, and the car directs the rate throughout.
CAN is the car’s internal message network and the CHAdeMO charging language. On a spec sheet, the question is which link the word describes.
A charging pile is a charger: ‘pile’ is the literal translation of the Chinese term for a charging post. Same hardware, different label.
NACS means North American Charging Standard — the compact connector, standardised as SAE J3400, that carries AC and DC charging in one plug.
A 7 kW charger runs in the 32 A class on a 40 A circuit — and its supply cable is specified by your electrician for that circuit, not picked from a chart.
OCPP means Open Charge Point Protocol — the open language a charger and its management software use to run sessions, report faults and share meter readings.
No. J1772 is the North American AC charging connector; CHAdeMO is a separate DC fast-charging system with its own inlet. They differ in current, socket, region and signalling.
No. A Supercharger session needs the right inlet or an approved adapter, a site Tesla has opened to your car, and your maker’s approval. Some cars have no route at all.
Watts are amps times volts, so 32 A has no fixed wattage: 7,680 W at 240 V, 3,840 W at 120 V, about 6,656 W at 208 V. The 240 V figure is the 7.7 kW on charger listings.
