EV Compatibility with Standard Sockets
Electric vehicles (EVs) can be plugged into standard household sockets, but there are some important considerations to keep in mind.Standard household sockets are typically rated for 120 volts and 15 amps. This is sufficient for charging an EV, but it will take longer than using a dedicated EV charger.
Additionally, using a standard socket for EV charging can put stress on the electrical system, especially if other high-power devices are being used at the same time.It is important to use a dedicated EV charger whenever possible. EV chargers are designed to safely and efficiently charge EVs, and they can reduce the risk of electrical problems.
