Electric-car charging: The basics

Baua Electric

The mobile connector or wallbox ( sometimes called EVSE for the sake of tax credits, rebates, or electrical work) will test the circuit when you plug it in, to ensure that it’s properly grounded and the current is strong enough to power the charger. But there are load-balancing and power-sharing options, too. In the U.S.,
