1. J1772
Standard EV connector produced for US and Japan. The plug has 5 contacts for charging according to Mode 2 and Mode 3 standards on a single-phase 230 V network (maximum current 32A). The plug, which charges up to 7.4 kW, is considered slow and outdated.
2.CCS1 (American Standard)
The CCS Combo 1 connector is a Type 1 receiver that allows the use of slow and fast charging plugs. The connector works thanks to an inverter installed in the car that converts AC to DC. Vehicles with this type of connection can increase the charging speed up to a maximum of "fast" charging. The CSS Combo is designed to charge 200-500 V at 200 A and deliver 100 kW of power.
3. CHAdeMO
The CHAdeMO plug is designed to be used in a powerful DC charging station in mode 4 and can charge the battery to 80% in 30 minutes (at 50 kW). It has a maximum voltage of 500 V, a current of 125 A and a power of up to 62.5 kW. Compatible with Japanese vehicles equipped with this connector. This is common in Japan and Western Europe.
4. Mennekes Type 2 and CCS2
Mennekes Type 2 plugs are installed on almost all European electric vehicles, as well as on Chinese electric vehicles for sale. Vehicles with this type of connector can be charged from single-phase and three-phase grids with a maximum voltage of 400 V and a current of 63 A. The maximum power of such charging stations is 43 kW, but usually fluctuates below 22 kW for three-phase networks and 7.4 kW for single-phase networks. Electric vehicles are charged in Mode 2 and Mode 3. Improved and backward compatible version of the CCS2 style plug. Very common in Europe. Fast charging up to 100 kW is permitted.
5. GBT
Standard plug for electric vehicles produced in China. There are also two versions: AC and DC power stations. The charging power through this connector is up to 190 kW at (250A, 750V).
