AC charging, sometimes referred to as level 2 charging, is typically found in residential establishments, hotels, and other places where cars will be parked for at least a few hours. DC charging, also referred to as level 3 charging, provides a much faster way to charge up EVs. The chargers are usually distinguished by the amount of kW they can deliver to electric vehicles per hour because they have built-in power converters rather than relying on the vehicle’s AC/DC rectifier. DC level 3 chargers can fully charge up electric vehicles in under an hour and are used at roadside charging locations, in fleets, and at other strategic locations.
In terms of electric cars charging stations, what is the difference between AC charging and DC charging?
