What is the difference between J1772 and CCS?

The difference is that J1772 is an AC charging standard (Level1/Level2) used mainly in North America, while CCS adds two extra DC pins to a J1772 (or Type2 in Europe) connector for fast DC charging, allowing much higher power and quicker charging.

What is a J1772 plug?

A J1772 plug is a standard North American AC EV charging connector used for Level1 (120V) and Level2 (240V) charging, featuring 5 pins for power and communication between the charger and vehicle.

Is J1772 level 1 or 2?

J1772 supports both Level1 (120V) and Level2 (240V) AC charging in North America, depending on the voltage and current supplied.

Is J1772 a fast charger?

No—J1772 is an AC connector for Level1 or Level2 charging; it's not a DC fast charger, though it can be part of a CCS setup for rapid charging.

Can I plug a CCS into a J1772?

No—you cannot directly plug a CCS charger into a J1772 port; CCS combines a J1772 (or Type2) connector with extra DC pins for fast charging, so CCS requires a compatible vehicle port or adapter.

Can I charge a Tesla with a J1772 charger?

Yes—you can charge a Tesla with a J1772 charger in North America using a Tesla J1772 adapter, allowing Level1 or Level2 AC charging.

Is J1772 slow charging?

J1772 charging can be slow or moderate, depending on the level: Level1 (120V) adds ~5-8km of range per hour, while Level2 (240V) adds ~25-35km per hour-still slower than DC fast charging.
