Electric Vehicle EVSE Protocol Controller EV Socket Version Car Charger Station
What is EVSE? And why does your electric car need it?
Simply put, EVSE is a protocol to help keep you and your electric car safe while charging.
Using two-way communication between the charger and car, the correct charging current is set based on the maximum current the charger can provide as well as the maximum current the car can receive.
As part of the protocol, a safety lock-out exists, preventing current from flowing when the charger is not connected to the car. It ensures that if a cable is not correctly inserted, power will not flow through it.
EVSE can also detect hardware faults, disconnecting the power and preventing battery damage, electrical shorts or worse still, fire.
No User Input Necessary
There was a time when electric vehicle owners seeking ultimate connectivity and charging at the highest possible rate would have to manually adjust their car’s charger to ensure that only the charger did not pull more power than the circuit the car was charging from.
