Charging connector function for electric vehicle connection cables

At present, three categories of charging connectors are distinguished for charging methods of electric vehicles.

1. off-board charger (off-board charger): installed outside the body of an electric vehicle, converting AC electrical energy into DC electrical energy.

2, on-board charger (on-board charger): fixed installation in the electric vehicle operation, the AC electrical energy into DC electrical energy; for example, the technology used in hybrid vehicles to ....

3. AC charging (AC charging spot ): A special power supply device that provides AC power to electric vehicles that have on-board charging devices using conduction.

Among them, the specifications of AC charging spot used for electric vehicles are explained in detail. AC charging spot or vehicle charger is generally 3.5kw, 7kw, 15kw power charging. For AC charging spot, the standard is set up by the Society of Automotive Engineers for residential charging spot, which is suitable for household 120VAC/230VAC power supply, available for 12-16A range of current, and can complete 24kWH battery charging in 12 to 17 hours; commercial office building charging Commercial office charging posts, for shopping malls, offices, etc., use a multi-phase 240 VAC power supply to power more powerful vehicle chargers with currents between 15 A and 80 A, charging a 24 kWH battery in approximately eight hours; these are the standards established for AC charging posts. An AC charging post is a charger that charges an electric vehicle power battery assembly using the DC charging mode.

Of course, the same as a DC charging post, there is a difference between slow charging and fast charging modes, which are divided according to the specifications distinguished by the mode. With the development of the times, charging products in the electric vehicle industry are constantly changing.
