40 Amp EV Charger for Electric Vehicles, Enphase HCS-50, 9.6kW, 240V Hardwired, 25 ft Cable

Product Overview: Your Solution for Home Charging

Say goodbye to gas stations and hello to the convenience of home charging with the Enphase HCS-50 EV Charger. This 40 Amp hardwired unit operates as a Level 2 charging station, designed for both indoor and outdoor use. With a permanent wall-mounted setup, you can wake up each morning to a fully charged electric vehicle.

Efficient and Versatile Design

The HCS-50 comes equipped with a generous 25-foot charging cable, allowing you to park almost anywhere while keeping your garage organized. The integrated cable wrap and holster minimize clutter, making it easy to store when not in use. Built to withstand extreme weather, the rugged construction and impact-resistant SAE J1772 connector ensure suitability for high-traffic areas.

Fast Home Charging Capability

Experience rapid charging with the HCS-50, which can recover up to 38 miles of range for every hour of charging, depending on your electric vehicle's make and model. The charger’s fully sealed NEMA 4 enclosure is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, ensuring durability regardless of the elements.

Certification and Compatibility

Every Enphase charging station is rigorously tested and safety certified by an independent Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). The chargers are ENERGY STAR certified and built to automaker standards, ensuring reliable performance. Compatible with nearly every electric vehicle sold in North America (some may require an adapter), the HCS-50 is a universal solution for EV owners.

Cost-Effectiveness of Electric Charging

Charging with electricity can be significantly cheaper than gasoline, with potential savings averaging up to 75%. The HCS-50 also qualifies for various local utility rebates across North America, which can mitigate the installation costs. Additionally, U.S. electric vehicle owners can benefit from a tax credit covering 30% of the charger’s cost and installation expenses.

Choosing Between Hardwired or Plug-in Options

Enphase offers flexibility with both hardwired and plug-in installation options. The hardwired chargers contain service wires managed through a three-foot flexible conduit and additional wire extensions, offering a semi-permanent installation. Though the units can be relocated, an electrician is needed for removal and reinstallation.

For plug-in chargers, a high-quality overmolded 240V plug replaces the flexible conduit of the hardwired option. The plug measures 12 inches and adheres to National Electric Code standards. If you already have a compatible 240V receptacle in your home, installation costs are minimal, as you'll only need to mount the charging station.

Comprehensive Charging System

The HCS-50 comes with a fully sealed NEMA 4 enclosure, ensuring protection against the elements. Its robust 25-foot SAE J1772 charging cable is ready for immediate use with convenient storage options. This model supports a wide range of electric vehicles, charging them safely and efficiently with up to 9.6 kW output.

Easy Installation and Safety Assurance

Installation is straightforward and should be done by a licensed electrician to meet electrical requirements and local codes. The charger meets ETL safety standards, ensuring peace of mind while charging your vehicle. Additionally, it features minimal standby power consumption, facilitating efficient energy use.

Final Thoughts

The Enphase HCS-50 EV Charger is engineered for one purpose: to deliver reliable and fast charging right at your home. With its powerful capabilities, durability, and extensive compatibility, you can enjoy the freedom of electric vehicle ownership and a more sustainable future.
