Charging Speed Considerations

The speed at which an EV battery charges is influenced by three crucial factors: the battery's size and storage capacity, the vehicle's power acceptance rate, and the rated output of the EV charging station. To estimate the charging time, you can divide the vehicle's battery capacity by the lower of the two rates—the vehicle's acceptance rate or the charger’s output.

Safety and Compliance

For optimal installation, employing a licensed electrician is advisable due to the complexity of electrical requirements and local codes. Enphase chargers undergo rigorous testing and are certified by recognized testing laboratories such as UL and ETL, ensuring safety and quality.

Wi-Fi Connectivity and Smart Features

While you can utilize the basic functions of the IQ EV Charger without a Wi-Fi connection, connecting to Wi-Fi unlocks advanced features within the Enphase App. This smart technology offers users the ability to schedule charging times, maximizing efficiency and cost savings.
