Choosing between a 3.6 kW or 7 kW charger depends on your specific needs and situation. Here are some factors to consider:
Charging speed:
7 kW chargers typically charge electric vehicles (EVs) faster than 3.6 kW chargers. If you need faster charging times, the 7 kW option may be more suitable.
Battery Capacity:
Consider the battery capacity of electric vehicles. If you have a smaller battery, such as a plug-in hybrid, a 3.6 kW charger may be sufficient. However, if you have a larger battery capacity (such as an all-electric vehicle), a 7 kW charger may be better at ensuring faster charging times.
Availability:
Check the availability of charging infrastructure in your area. You probably don't need a 7kW ev fast charger at home if you have access to a higher wattage charger within a reasonable distance. However, if convenient charging options are limited, a higher wattage charger may be more beneficial.
Electric capacity:
Consider the electric capacity of your home or where you will install the charger. Installing a 7 kW charger may require additional electrical upgrades or higher amperage circuits, which will increase installation costs.
Can I Have a 7kw Charger At Home?
Yes, it is possible to have a 7 kW charger installed at home, as long as your electrical system can support it. Having a 7kW charger at home can be advantageous, especially if you have a long daily commute or frequently travel long distances. It allows you to charge your EV quickly and efficiently, ensuring that you have enough range for your daily driving needs.
The majority of residential properties are equipped with single phase power, enabling a maximum charging rate of 7kW. However, faster chargepoints, like a 22kW unit, are commonly found in commercial properties that have a three phase power supply.
