We design, legaise, and carry out the installtion of electric vehicle charging points in single-family homes, residential communities, industrial settings, and public areas.
1. TYPES OF VEHICLES
HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicles)
Vehicles equipped with an internal combustion engine and a permanent magnet electric motor.
PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles)
An evolution of HEVs, these vehicles allow battery charging via connection to the electric grid, enabling them to run the first kilometers using electric energy.
EV (Fully Electric Vehicles)
Due to current battery capabilities, these vehicles are sometimes seen as limited in utility because of their range and the required charging times.
CONVENTIONAL CHARGING (16 Amps)
Single-phase conventional charging uses a current of 16 amps and a voltage of 230 volts—the same as a household outlet.
The delivered electrical power is approximately 3.7 kW.
Battery charging takes about 8 hours, making it ideal to charge overnight (when energy demand is lower), either in a single-family home garage or shared residential garage.
SEMI-FAST CHARGING (32 Amps)
Semi-fast charging uses 32 amps and 230 VAC, delivering approximately 7.3 kW of electrical power.
Battery charging time is about 4 hours.
The optimal solution is to charge the vehicle overnight in a private or shared garage.
FAST CHARGING
The most efficient type of charging, allowing approximately 65% of the battery to be charged in just 15 minutes.
These types of charges are intended for range extension or convenience charging.
Fast charging uses higher electric current, which may require adjustments to the existing power grid, and delivers energy as direct current (DC) for optimal performance.
Charging using a "Schuko" (domestic socket) outlet, with no communication between the charging station and the electric vehicle.
Wall-mounted Schuko outlet charging, with pilot function systems integrated into the cable. The cable includes a built-in control device that verifies proper connection of the vehicle to the power grid.
Charging via "Mennekes" type outlet, with integrated pilot wire communication. The control devices and protection systems are already built into the charging station.
Charging with a DC converter
Only used for fast charging.
