So we need to measure current flowing to ground (should be zero in normal operation). If this is more than 20 mA we want to isolate the car by opening the relays. The reason RCDs typically trip at 5-30mA is because this amount of current for a couple hundred milliseconds doesn’t cause permanent injury to humans. I like the wikipedia article on electrical injury.

This charging speed is fast enough for overnight charging to wake up to a full battery. Upgrading from the standard 3kW charger to a 7kW charger cuts charging times in half. The major electric vehicle brands like Tesla, Nissan, and Chevrolet support 7kW charging. 7kW home chargerThe regulators need a minimum load of about 5 mA to maintain regulation. Therefore R3 & R17 provide a small load for them. The regulators are operating uncomfortably close to their dropout voltages. According to the datasheet the dropout at 20 mA load is about 1.6 V at 0℃ which allows us to up our op-amp rails to about 13.4 V if necessary.
Fast Mode– Fast mode will charge the EV at the fastest possible rate, regardless of whether the energy is supplied from the Grid or from your Solar PV. Overall, a 7kW home EV charger hits the sweet spot for most homes, with charge speeds fast enough for overnight charging at an affordable installation cost. EV owners can conveniently wake up to a fully charged electric vehicle battery every morning. Calculating total charge time (cheat calculation) A level 3 charge, which is 480 volts and 100-250 amps, will charge your car at about 50-100 miles per hour. This is the equivalent of using a high-speed charger at a public charging station. The time it takes to charge your car will depend on the size of your battery and the type of charger you use.For instance, an electric vehicle whose onboard charger has the capacity of 3.6kW, will only accept current up to 16 Amp and even if a 32 Amp charging cable is used and plugged into a 7.2kW charging point, the charging rate won’t be increased; neither it will reduce the charging time. A 3.6kW charger will take almost 7 hours to get fully charged with a 16 Amp charging cable. Level 3/DC Fast Charging: This is the fastest form of charging currently available, typically found at dedicated public charging stations. Not all EVs can use this level of charging, and even those that can may require special adapters. Level 1: This is typically the charging level achieved with a standard household outlet. It’s the slowest form of charging. Level 2, often referred to as “7.2 kW Charging”, uses a 240-volt source (like an electric dryer or oven in the U.S.) and offers power up to 19.2 kW. However, a common charging rate for Level 2 chargers is 7.2 kW. This level of charging provides significantly faster charging than Level 1 and is typically achieved with a dedicated charging station, either public or installed at a home. Another disadvantage to this cable is, if your partner or someone you live with also has an electric vehicle, they will not be able to charge their car at the optimum rate unless their vehicle has the same charging connection and amps. Here at EV King, we would advise if you are looking to buy a tethered ev cable buy one that can carry the maximum charge (32amp). This means that if you upgrade your vehicle or your partner has an electric car, they can always charge their vehicle at the maximum rate.
