EV Charging: The Difference between AC and DC for your electric vehicle
When it comes to electric mobility, there are two types of electrical currents that may be utilised to power an EV: AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current).
In the case of AC charging, the electrical current is converted to DC inside the EV. All electric vehicles include onboard chargers that can convert current before providing it to the vehicle's battery. Because they are less expensive to make, install, and run, AC chargers are more ubiquitous in the EV ecosystem.
However, DC Fast Charging avoids the on-board charger's limitations and required conversion and delivers DC power directly to the battery. Hence, charging speed may be considerably enhanced.
The key difference between AC and DC charging is where the AC to DC conversion takes place. So, as long as you know what maximum charge your car can handle, the one stop application by Zerovolt Electric will help you locate the suitable charging station for your vehicle.
