Ev Charging Stations

An electric vehicle charging station, also known as an EVSE (electric vehicle supply equipment), can provide the power to your EV just like gasoline powers a fuel-based car. So the unit installed on your garage wall is not actually a "charger," although it is commonly called that. The unit is also called an EVSE, for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment. If you're looking to install something to charge your electric car in your garage, carport, or elsewhere, a "charging station" or EVSE is what you want.

While 240-volt charging stations aren't complicated, there are many different options on the market. Some important features need to be considered when selecting your EV CHARGING STATION.

Volts - AMPS and KILOWATTS (think about volts, amps, and kilowatts as if you were moving water instead of electricity:Volts are like the water pressure. Amps measure flow rate. Kilowatts measure how much power you get when you multiply the volts (pressure) and the amps (volume)).
