#TESLA WALL CONNECTOR CHARGE RATE PORTABLE#
In the case of a Tesla Model 3 or Y it would comprise the Tesla Mobile Connector (a portable charger) and an existing powerpoint. Level 1 charging typically describes the slowest and most basic charging setup. Tesla Model 3 & Y Charging Ports Explained You can check the MAX AC charge rate of all EVs in our database. The Model S and X have faster onboard chargers which can support up to 22 kW. For example, based on 37 km distance (average), the single-phase charger will take 20 minutes longer to charge. The difference in speed is unlikely to have material impact on convenience. On single-phase electricity, the maximum power achievable is 7.7 kW based on a 32 amp power source. To reach this maximum speed your home will need three-phase electricity and the power source of the charger will need to be at least 16 amps. These will have a maximum charge potential of 11 kW. The onboard chargers in the Model 3/Y are rated at 16 amps and support three-phase electricity. Working out the maximum charging potential of your Tesla Model 3 and Y In the image below, the single-phase supply has a single switch, whereas the three-phase supply has three switches. You can check what you have by locating your main switchboard and observing what the mains circuit breaker looks like. Most homes in Australia are likely to have single-phase power. Single-phase can adequately support higher power devices but three-phase will provide a more consistent and reliable power delivery especially when high power devices are operating simultaneously. It is therefore better able to accommodate higher loads, for example ducted air conditioning, pool pumps and higher output EV chargers.Ī level 2 wall-mounted charger on single-phase power supplies a maximum of 7 KW, whereas three-phase supplies a maximum of 22 kW. The key difference is that three-phase supplies three times the power (kW) compared to single-phase. This is the reason why the DC chargers are so much larger than the ones you see at home. When you are using Tesla's Superchargers or any of the public charging networks, the AC to DC conversion is done on-site (by the large charger unit), allowing a much higher current to be sent directly to the car’s battery. When charging at home (using AC power) electricity is supplied to a different part of the charge port (discussed below). 22kW, the car will only be able to accept power based on the limit of the on-board charger e.g.
These limits mean that even if you are supplying your car at a much higher current e.g. It therefore has a much lower power output (7kW to 11kW typically) compared to DC charging (50 kW to 350 kW). The onboard charger needs to be compact and lightweight. When you are charging at home, power is fed from the power point/wall charger as AC and converted to DC using the car’s onboard charger so it can be accepted by the battery. This means AC to DC conversion will occur via The battery in your electric car only accepts direct current (DC) electricity. The grid and your home operate on alternating current (AC) electricity.
