Charging your electric car - vehicle couldn’t be easier and more straightforward, as long as you have the appropriate equipment. Whilst you are working, having a meeting or sitting at your desk your car can be charged safely and quickly.
The majority of electric car manufacturers recommend that you do not use a standard 13 amp socket for charging your electric car for safety reasons. A typical ring main is not designed to take the constant load that an EV will draw, potentially creating a risk of fire or short circuits in other parts of your wiring. If you use a standard 13 amp socket, the rate of charge will be severely restricted by the car manufacturer so that it may take up to 12 hours to fully charge the vehicle. This time can be reduced to around 3 hours for a properly installed electric vehicle charging station, dependant on manufacturer of the charge point and the make and model of your electric vehicle.
Whilst a standard external socket can be used, the industrial standard ‘Blue Commando’ connector is a weather-proof solution for outdoor charging, and able to carry a higher 16 amp current, which makes it a far safer option.
