Wireless Charging of EVs Being Tested

Get Electric Vehicle

When current travels through the coils of wire in the base unit, they operate as main winding and generate a magnetic field. Wireless charging is achieved by treating this neighboring coil as a secondary winding and connecting it to a charging device. Without actually contacting the next coil, this field produces a current.
