Find Out the most Optimal Charging Solution for your Home According to the Electric Vehicle you Drive.
The following tables show the optimal amperage for a level 2 home charging station according to your electric car power acceptance.
A higher charger amperage (A) will allow you to charge faster only if your electric car can take the power delivered by the charging station.
Because of the power acceptance limit of some electric cars, it's possible that a charging station with 40A doesn't allow you to charge faster than a standard 30A charger.
The next table will let you find out which amperage you should choose for your electric vehicle.
