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 20-40kw, DC 60-240kw, and DC 360-960kw. The time required for charging will
be reduced accordingly.
