34.Can I charge my car through a regular plug socket?

It is possible to charge an EV by using a regular 3-pin plug, and most new vehicles will come with a cable for you to do this. It’s best to keep this option as a back-up though, rather than as your main method of charging.
This is because charging your car like this is slow at 2.3kW and puts strain on a regular electric circuit, as it runs close to its 3kW maximum for a long time. For example, it’ll take more than 17 hours to fully charge a 40kWh battery like the one in the popular Nissan Leaf. A 64kWh Kia E-Niro, meanwhile, will take almost 28 hours to charge from empty to full.


35. How to get electric car charger at home

Arranging installation of a home charger is easy, and you can do it through either your energy provider or a specialist company. You can use EV charging station Map to find a charge point installer near you by entering your postcode and the brand of charger you’d like. 


37.What’s the best home charger to get?
Home charge points are available in 3kW and 7kW forms, but 7kW chargers are most common. They come in a lot of different styles, whether you’re after a futuristic design to be a feature of your driveway, or a small, subtle covering to hide your charge point inside something like a wood-effect box.

There are plenty of different brands you can choose between, while you should look out for the type of connector your car has and the features on offer with different chargers, such as compatibility with apps and other energy-saving devices in your home. You can also choose between different cable lengths to suit your needs.


38.What is a smart charger?
Example: The UK government is looking to introduce regulations which ensure all EV charge points sold or installed in the country have smart charging functionality, while only smart chargers qualify for the government contribution towards installation of a home charge point.

They allow you to charge up at times of the day when the demand for energy is low, meaning there’s less strain on the electricity grid. You can program your charger to come on overnight to take advantage of the lower energy prices you get on your tariff, while their safe, fast and easy nature makes them win-win all round.


39.What is Vehicle-to-Grid charging?
Vehicle-to-Grid, or V2G charging is where electric cars effectively act as power banks, returning energy to the electricity grid during peak times. Whereas smart charging helps the grid by managing the demand placed on it, V2G technology goes a step further by taking energy from car batteries to power both your home and the country’s electricity network.


40. What is OCPP?

The Open Charge Point Protocol(OCPP) is a protocol for communication between an EV charging Station and a central Back Office system. The Open Charge Pint Protocol(OCPP) is a freely available open standard that enables component vendors and network operators to :mix and match” interoperable hardware and software. Today charing network operators and service providers in more than 50 countries rely on OCPP to manage more than 10,000 charging stations.

 

41.Dose Newyea support OCPP?

Currently, our charging products support authorization, remote start/stop transaction, setting availability, remote reset, abnormal status and corresponding error information report, changing configuration, firmware upgrade, heartbeat, changing data repot, offline upload, All kinds of functions required for OCPP can be fulfilled.

The concept is almost like having a huge decentralised power station across the UK. This will rely on renewable energy where cars are charged by a supplier offering it, while your car will still be fully charged when you need it to be. V2G technology is improving all the time and will become more accessible over the coming years.


42. What is a 7kw EV home charger?

EV home chargers have a typical charging power of either 3.6kW, 7kW (22kW charge points require three phase power, which is rare in UK homes).

3.6kW and 7kW chargers rely on single phase power supply which 95% of UK homes already have. Therefore for most people, choosing a 7kW charger is the best option because it’s the fastest power rating their home can support.

43.What is the average charge time?

A typical electric car (60kWh battery) takes just under 8 hours to charge from empty to full using a 7kW home charging point.

To work out the charge time of your car you can do the following:

Divide the power of your car battery (also in kW) by the figure obtained to get the charging time.
For example: 60kW/ 7.3 kW= 8.2 hours

This will be a rough indicator as exact charge times vary on the temperature of your environment and the amount of charge already in the battery. Note that charging rate slows down considerably when you are charging the last 5% of your battery.

44.Why is a home electric charger a good idea?

Having a dedicated EV home charger is the most convenient and cost-effective way of charging your EV. This is because most drivers charge at home at night and sometimes top up during the day.

49. How China put nearly 5 million new energy vehicles on the road in one decade

At the end of 2020, an important milestone was reached when 4.92 million new energy vehicles (NEVs), including battery electric, plug-in hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles, were operating on China’s roads. These were 1.75% of the country’s total vehicle stock. Ten years ago, China had only deployed some 20,000 NEVs nationwide, and it was only eight years ago that China established a mid-term strategy for NEV development that aimed at a cumulative 5 million vehicles sold by the end of 2020. This means that in just a decade, China’s NEV population grew by about 250 fold!

50.How Does an Electric Car Battery Charger Work?


Before you decide on an ideal charging method for your EV, it's imperative to understand how electric car battery chargers work. So, let's dive in.

Here, we'll explain how electric car battery chargers work so that you can understand how to use yours safely and effectively.

51. What Are Electric Car Battery Chargers?


An electric car battery charger is a device that charges the batteries of electric cars. The charger is connected to the electric car's battery and draws power from the electricity grid to charge the battery. There are different types of chargers, but all work in essentially the same way.

52. How Do Electric Car Battery Chargers Work?

Electric car battery chargers work using a process called induction charging. This is where an electromagnetic field is used to transfer energy between two coils of wire. One coil is connected to the power source, and the other is connected to the battery. The charger creates a magnetic field around the coils, which induces a current in them. This current then flows into the battery, charging your electric vehicle.

The charger has two main components:

Control unit: This controls the flow of electricity into the charger and regulates the charging process.

Power supply: This provides the electricity used to charge the batteries.

The power supply is connected to the control unit, which regulates the flow of electricity into the charger. The power supply provides a current to the charger, which flows through the coils and into the battery.

When you plug your electric car into a charging point, the power flows from the grid through the charging point and into your car's battery. The charging point contains a control unit, which regulates the flow of electricity into your car's battery.

The control unit ensures that the batteries are charged safely and effectively and that the charger does not overheat. It also monitors the status of the batteries and can provide information to you about how much charge they have.

53. What Are the Different Methods of Charging an Electric Vehicle?

Electric vehicles utilize the electricity from their batteries to function. Fortunately, you can charge these batteries in several ways:

You can plug the electric vehicle into a standard household outlet. This is the slowest charging method, and it may take eight hours or more to charge the vehicle fully.

You can install a dedicated charger to charge the electric vehicle faster than a typical household outlet. You'll still need roughly four to six hours to charge it fully.

You can use a public charging station to charge the electric vehicle much faster than a dedicated charger. Your car's batteries may only take 30 minutes to an hour to go from 0 to 100%.

54. Home vs. Public Charging: Which Is Better?

Electric vehicle batteries can be charged in two main ways: at home or at public charging stations. Both have their pros and cons, so it's essential to understand the differences before spending money on a dedicated charger.

Home chargers are typically cheaper and more convenient, but public chargers offer a faster charge. In terms of cost, home chargers can range from $300 to $1,200, while public chargers can cost anywhere from $2 to $5 per hour.

In terms of convenience, you can plug in your home charger and charge your car overnight while it's in the garage. On the other hand, public chargers require planning and may not be available when needed. But when it comes to charging speed, public chargers can charge an electric vehicle much faster than a home charger.

So, which is best? It depends on your needs and preferences. A home charger is probably your best bet if you want the cheapest and most convenient option. However, a public charger would be better if you need a quick charge and don't mind paying more money.

55. How Often Should You Charge Your Electric Car?

Most electric car manufacturers recommend that you charge your car's battery every night. This ensures that the battery is always full and ready to go. However, some people may not have the time or ability to charge their car every night. In this case, it's important to understand how much range you need and how to maximize it.

If you only need to drive a short distance each day, you may be able to get by with charging your car once every few days. However, if you need to drive a long distance, you may need to charge your car more often.

One of the best ways to maximize your electric car's range is to charge it whenever you can. If you're going to be home for a few hours, plug it in and let it charge. If you're going to be out all day, find a public charger and top off your battery.

56. Tips for Keeping Your Electric Car Charger in Good Condition

Electric vehicles require some special care when it comes to charging the battery. Here are a few tips to help you keep your electric car battery charger in good condition:

Always read the manufacturer's instructions before using the charger.

Never leave the charger plugged in when not in use.

Keep the charger clean and free of dirt and dust.

Do not use the charger in damp conditions.

If the charger is damaged, do not use it and contact the manufacturer for a replacement.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your electric car battery charger doesn't run into issues and last for many years.

57. What to Do if Your Electric Car Charger Stops Working

If your electric car battery charger stops working, there are a few things you can do:

Check the manufacturer's website for troubleshooting tips.

Contact the manufacturer for customer support.

Take the charger to a qualified technician for repairs.

Replace the charger with a new one.

58. Understanding Electric Car Battery Chargers

Electric car battery chargers are essential for keeping your electric vehicle running. It's imperative to understand how they work and how to care for them properly to ensure they last for several years. And if you rely on public chargers, remind yourself to charge your electric car every chance you get.


59. How long will it take to install an EV charger?

An installation will typically take half a day. If your fuse box is far from the charge point location or cables need to be run through internal rooms, the installation may take a little longer.

 

60. How does electric car charging work?

Charging an electric car is a pretty simple process that can differ depending on the type of charger. Generally, every EV comes with a charging cable and plug suitable for the specific car and country you live in. Most of the time, you will be able to plug the cable directly into a 3-pin home outlet and charge your EV straight off your home’s electrical network.

 

61. How do you pay for electric car charging?

When charging at home, the electricity used by your EV will simply be added to your electric bill. Paying for public charging works differently. Often, you can either pay directly by card or an app, or your charging costs are monthly billed based on a contract or subscription.

 

62. Electric car range

While EV ranges vary greatly, the current average range is around 331 km on a full charge. Similarly, although driving distances vary between countries, the average urban short trip in the EU is 43 km, well within the vast majority of EVs’ range.

Taking these average numbers, you would only need to charge your EV fully approximately every week. Of course, if you drive more or your car’s range is significantly lower, you’ll need to plug in more often. Even then, an EV will typically last multiple days before needing a charge.


63.What happens if the charging station overheats or overloads during charging?

Charging stations are divided into two different charging types: AC charging stations (alternating current) and DC charging stations (direct current). With AC charging stations, charging capacities between 3.7 and 44 kW are possible. The alternating current is converted into direct current inside the electric vehicle, by means of a rectifier, as the battery is charged with direct current. In the case of the DC charging stations, the current is already converted into direct current within the charging station. With this charging method, charging capacities of up to 350 kW are possible. For this reason, these charging stations are correspondingly more cost-intensive. DC charging stations are mainly used at motorway service stations, as a fast charging process is expected at these locations. In urban areas, the AC charging station has established itself as the standard.


64.What happens if the charging station overheats or overloads during charging?

An internal temperature monitor is integrated to protect the charging station from overheating. For this purpose, the charging current is automatically limited to a safe level. Electronic overcurrent protection also protects the charging cable from overloading.


65.How large must the supply line at a charging station be?

The size of the supply line depends on the maximum charging current of the charging station and the length of the supply line. The supply line must be designed by a qualified electrician.

66.Why is it billed at public charging points per quarter of an hour?

A bill for kilowatt hours purchased may only be drawn up by energy suppliers in accordance with the Energy Industry Act. For this reason, charging processes are usually billed on a time basis.

67.Why is there also a tariff for 0 kW at public charging stations?

When a charging process is completed at a charging station that is subject to a charge, no more electricity flows (0 kW). However, a parking fee will still be charged, as other electric vehicles will not be able to charge at this charging station.

68.How do I start a charging process?


The vehicle must first be connected to the charging station. If the charging station is not set to free charging, you must authorize yourself with an RFID card or by app to start the charging process. Some backend providers also offer the possibility to authorize via SMS.


69.Can the plug be pulled out during charging?

No, IEC 62196-2 stipulates for safety reasons that during charging the plug must be locked inside the charging socket both on the infrastructure side and on the vehicle side.


70.What happens to the connector lock during a power failure?

In the event of a power failure, the plug lock is released and the plug can be removed from the charging socket.
