What is an EV Charger (electric vehicle charging station)?

EV Charger or electric vehicle charging station Acts as an electrical charger for car batteries that use electrical energy. It can be divided into 2 types of charging: Normal Charge and Quick Charge.

1. Normal Charge is charging with AC power by charging through the On Board Charger inside the electric car. Which serves to convert AC power to DC power. The size of the On Board Charger depends on the car brand. The size of the On Board Charger will affect the charging time of the car battery.


For example, An electric car with a 24 KWh car battery and a 3KW On Board Charger. Charging time is 8 hours.

2. Quick Charge involves charging using an EV Charger (electric vehicle charging station) that converts AC power to DC power and supplies DC power directly to the electric vehicle battery. The time it takes to charge is less than a Normal Charger. The EV Charger's charging head (SOCKET) has both AC and DC types. The type of charger depends on the car manufacturer's standards.


For example, An electric car with a 24kWh car battery using a Quick Charge EV Charger with a charging power of 50kW. Charging time will be no more than 1/2 hour.

Selecting and installing an EV Charger that is appropriate for use

Installation of EV Charger equipment in various locations will be selected according to the suitability of the time used for charging For example, a residence should install an AC EV Charger. It will take a long time to charge. But the time we spend inside the house is also quite long, or if you want to set it up as an EV Charger station that requires charging speed. You can choose to use DC charging, which has 3 charging levels: DC Wallbox, DC Terra 54, and DC Terra 360. The time required for charging will be reduced accordingly.
