Introducing the HCS-D50 Dual EV Charger, a cutting-edge solution designed for charging two electric vehicles on a single dedicated circuit. This charger distributes up to 20 Amps per vehicle when both are charging, and can reach a maximum of 40 Amps for single-vehicle charging. It requires installation on a minimum 50 Amp dedicated circuit, ensuring optimal performance.

Installation & Design Features

The HCS-D50 is permanently wall-mounted and can be used for both indoor and outdoor settings. With its 25-foot charging cables, this station allows you to park conveniently while keeping your garage tidy. The charger comes equipped with integrated cable wraps and two holsters for effortless cable management.

Designed to withstand harsh weather, the rugged HCS EV Chargers feature an impact-resistant SAE J1772 connector, making them ideal for environments with heavy foot traffic. They are safety certified, ensuring compatibility with virtually all electric vehicles available in North America.

Fast Charging Capabilities

The HCS-D50 excels in delivering rapid charging capabilities. It has the potential to recover up to 38 miles of range per hour for a single EV or 19 miles per hour for two vehicles, depending on their make and model. The enclosure is a fully sealed NEMA 4 type, suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

Safety & Compatibility

Every Enphase Charging Station is independently safety certified by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) and meets ENERGY STAR standards. The chargers are constructed to conform with automaker specifications, ensuring a reliable charging experience each time. They are compatible with nearly every electric vehicle sold in North America, though some models may require an adapter.

Cost-Effective Charging Solution

Charging an EV is generally more economical than fueling with gasoline, often costing about 75% less. The HCS-D50 qualifies for utility rebates across North America, aiding in offsetting installation costs. Additionally, EV owners in the U.S. can claim a tax credit for 30% of the expenses related to the Enphase charging station and its installation.

Flexible Installation Options

Enphase EV chargers offer two installation types: hardwired and plug-in. The hardwired versions come with service wires that run through a three-foot flexible conduit, augmenting installation ease into a junction box. Although hardwired installations are more permanent, they can be moved, requiring professional assistance for uninstalling and relocating.

The plug-in versions feature a high-quality over-molded 240V plug. This type includes a 12-inch length, complying with National Electric Code, making it straightforward for residential use. If you already have a 240V NEMA 14-50 receptacle installed, installation costs can be significantly minimized.

The HCS-D50 is versatile, available for dual vehicle charging and outfitted with durable 25-foot cables, along with a physical manual for guidance. Customers rate this product highly for its performance, boasting an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars.
