Portable Charger Connector – 3Pin – 16A
The Portable Charger Connector – 3Pin – 16A is a 16A electrical connector for charging electric vehicles, primarily used for Level 2 AC charging in regions with 240V outlets.
3-Pin Design:
- The 3-pin configuration refers to the number of contact points or pins within the connector that facilitate the connection between the EV and the charging source.
- Live (L): The “live” pin, which carries the current from the power source to the vehicle.
- Neutral (N): The “neutral” pin, which completes the circuit by providing the return path for the current.
- Earth (E): The “earth” or “ground” pin, used for safety. It prevents electrical shock by grounding the system.
16A Rating:
-
- 16A refers to the maximum current the connector and cable are designed to carry safely.
- This is a moderate charging capacity commonly found in home charging solutions and public charging stations for Level 2 charging. A 16A connector typically delivers up to 3.7 kW of charging power at 230V-240V (in regions with a 230V or 240V AC power supply like Europe, parts of Asia, and Australia).
