Frequently Asked Questions

Level 1 charging stations are typically provided with an EV purchase and use a J1772 connector. They are rated 120 Volts and can be plugged into a standard NEMA 5-15 household outlet. Level 1 provides the slowest charging time, averaging 5 miles of range per hour of charging.

Level 2 charging stations are the most common type of charging stations in the US and North America, using a J1772 connector. As of 2022, over 85% of public EVSE ports in the US were Level 2. They are rated 240 Volts and charge faster than Level 1, averaging 25 miles of range per 1 hour of charging. Level 2 charging stations are common for homeowners, workplace, and other commercial/public locations.

DC charging stations, often referred to as "Level 3 Charging Stations", use direct-current to provide quick charging.  They use CCS connectors (also known as J1772 combo) and CHAdeMO connectors. They are typically rated 208/480 Volts and charge faster than Level 2, averaging 100-200+ miles of range per 30 minutes of charging (or 200-400+ miles of range per 1 hour of charging) and are common at rest stops, gas stations, shopping malls, and other public locations.

*Charging time may vary depending on the vehicle and battery capacity

  • AC Charging – AC power is put into the vehicle from a charging station, and then the converter inside the vehicle converts it to DC power.
  • DC Charging – the charging station, with a built in convertor, converts AC to DC, and then the vehicle receives DC power directly from the charger, allowing for faster charging.  DC Charging is often referred to as Level 3 Charging

Yes!  There are many Federal and State rebates and incentives being offered to promote the widespread adoption of electric and other alternative fuel vehicles, including tax breaks, reduced utility rates and more.  Whether you are an EV driver or a business owner, see which apply to you.

The following list includes important safety features you should think about prior to selecting a Level 2 EV Charging Station:

 

  • Pick an EV Charging Station with the latest industry standards including meeting Underwriter’s Laboratory and National Electric Code Requirements
  • Make sure the manufacturer provides additional safety features such as ground monitoring circuitry and over temperature protection

While EVs come with Level 1 chargers, a Level 2 charging station reduces the charge time by up to 5 times. These are ideal for dealerships to charge vehicles on the lot. For an even faster charge, a DC charging station is recommended.

Level 2 charging stations are recommended for residential applications. Many customers want a Level 2 charger because it delivers safe, reliable and secure power for  electric vehicles. Additionally, Level 2 charging provides the benefit of “topping off” the  electric battery in a relatively short period of time.

Leviton’s Level 2 Charging Stations feature a J1772 coupler, which is the North American charging standard and is available on all EVs. Leviton’s DC Charging Station has a CCS1 and CHAdeMo coupler, which is becoming increasingly popular in the latest EVs.
