They are safer, cheaper to install and perfect for home use. DC (direct current) chargers skip that internal conversion: they convert the electricity before sending it to the car, which allows much faster charging. The trade-off is that DC chargers are expensive, need special infrastructure and are only found at public rapid-charging stations.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AC_chargers_ideal_for_home_and_everyday_use\"><\/span>AC chargers: ideal for home and everyday use<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A home AC charger (wallbox) takes electricity from your 220 V or 400 V supply and sends it to the car through the charging cable. They are safe, quiet and can stay connected all the time. Typical speeds are 3.7 kW (slow charging, 12\u201315 hours), 7.4 kW (standard, 6\u20138 hours) or 11\u201322 kW (fast, 1\u20133 hours). The speed depends on your electricity contract and on what your car can accept.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DC_chargers_for_fast_charging_on_long_journeys\"><\/span>DC chargers: for fast charging on long journeys<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The DC chargers you see on motorways and public networks run at 50 to 350 kW, charging batteries from 20% to 80% in 20\u201345 minutes. They are ideal for long trips, but not for daily use at home: they would draw too much power and the installation would cost tens of thousands of euros. In addition, rapid DC chargers degrade the battery more over the long term if used constantly.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Connectors_Type_2_Type_1_and_CCS\"><\/span>Connectors: Type 2, Type 1 and CCS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The connector is the physical plug that links the cable to the car. In Europe the current standard is Type 2 (the one with two larger circles), which you will find on almost every new electric car. Older cars may have Type 1 (smaller, rare in Europe) or CCS (which combines AC and DC in one connector). With an adapter you can use other connectors, but it is always better if yours is natively compatible.<\/p>\n<div style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin: 20px 0;\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\">\n<thead>\n<tr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\">\n<th style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Charger type<\/th>\n<th style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Technology<\/th>\n<th style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Speed<\/th>\n<th style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Typical use<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Slow AC<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Alternating current, 3.7 kW<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">12\u201315 hours (0\u2013100%)<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Occasional home socket<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Standard AC<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Alternating current, 7.4 kW<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">6\u20138 hours (0\u2013100%)<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Home, garage, office<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Fast AC<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Alternating current, 11\u201322 kW<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">1\u20133 hours (0\u2013100%)<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Public car parks, shopping centres<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Ultra-fast DC<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Direct current, 50\u2013350 kW<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">20\u201345 minutes (20\u201380%)<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 12px;\">Motorways, long journeys<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_one_should_you_choose\"><\/span>Which one should you choose?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you drive less than 200 km a day and have a garage, a 7.4 kW AC wallbox is enough and saves you money. If you make longer trips or want faster charging, go up to 11\u201322 kW if your electricity contract allows it. You will not install a DC charger at home, but it is good to know they exist when you plan long journeys.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions_about_charger_types\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions about charger types<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_kW_mean_on_a_charger\"><\/span>What does kW mean on a charger?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>kW is the power: the more power, the faster the charge. A 7.4 kW charger charges roughly twice as fast as a 3.7 kW one.

For occasional use on trips, it is not a problem. For daily charging, a medium-power AC charger that puts less strain on the battery is better.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_my_car_compatible_with_all_connectors\"><\/span>Is my car compatible with all connectors?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No. Each car has a native connector.
