What are type 1 and Type 2 EV chargers?

Type 1 and Type 2 are common EV charging connector types: Type 1 is a single-phase plug mainly used in North America and Japan, while Type 2 is a versatile, often three-phase plug standard in Europe, supporting faster charging.

Are CCS and J1772 the same?

No, CCS and J1772 are different: J1772 is the standard AC charging connector in North America, while CCS adds two extra pins for fast DC charging, combining AC and DC in one plug.

No, Type 2 and CCS are different connectors, but CCS uses a Type 2 plug combined with extra pins for fast DC charging in Europe. So, CCS includes Type 2 for AC plus added DC pins.

Which type of charger is used in Europe?

In Europe, the most common EV charger connector is Type 2 for AC charging and CCS Type 2 for fast DC charging.

Is a Tesla charger level 1 or 2?

A Tesla home charger (Wall Connector) is a Level 2 charger, providing faster AC charging than Level 1.

Is my car Type 1 or Type 2?

It depends on your car's make, model, and where it was sold: most EVs in Europe use Type 2, while many older North American/Japanese models use Type 1. The sure way is to check your charge port shape (Type 1 has 5 pins with a latch; Type 2 is round with 7 holes) or your owner's manual/spec sheet.

Can you plug a J1772 into a CCS port?

Yes — on cars with a CCS Combo (CCS1) inlet, you can plug in a J1772 connector for normal AC charging because the top part of the CCS port is essentially J1772; it just won't support DC fast charging with that plug.

Is CCS faster than Type 2?

Yes — CCS is generally much faster than Type 2, because CCS supports high-power DC fast charging, while Type 2 is typically used for slower AC charging (home or destination charging).
