Understanding the Power
EV chargers supply the same AC mains electricity you use at home or work. Our adapter’s electronics complete the smart handshake so the charge point activates and delivers full current without an EV connected. When used on a 7 kW single-phase socket, only L1 + N + E are live (230 V 32 A max). On a 22 kW 3-phase charger, all phases energise for 400 V operation at 32 A each.
If using a public network, you may need to end the session in the provider app before unplugging the Type 2 connector.
