Although people mostly use the term "EV charger", the technical name of the charging station is EVSE, which stands for electric vehicle power supply equipment.

This is a device that can safely provide electrical energy for electric vehicles to charge them. It is safe and easy to charge an electric car as long as you use appropriate equipment that has been approved for safety. General EVSE uses established protocols to ensure electrical safety during the entire charging process-for users, vehicles and the grid. Today, almost all chargers on the market are suitable for indoor or outdoor use.

Choosing the right charging station may seem like a complicated process, but it doesn't necessarily make people overwhelmed. The first step is to ensure that your electrical panel has the capacity to install the charging station. It is also recommended to ensure that the EVSE you are buying has a warranty and customer support available.

All charging stations included in this guide have been safety tested and certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory (NRTL), such as Intertek (ETL) or Underwriters Laboratories (UL). The NRTL certification mark is located on the product itself (located on the nameplate). The building inspector will look for the nameplate to ensure that the product has been installed according to its certification.

Most manufacturers of electric vehicle charging stations provide a 3-year warranty for their products. Part of the warranty period can be extended to 5 years. (Please refer to the table to find warranty information for the specific charging station you are interested in.) However, one important thing to note about the warranty is that many of these warranties are for parts only and do not include labor. Some companies will provide complete parts and labor warranty. If you are not sure about the products provided before purchasing the product, please check the rules or contact the company.

There are two types of home chargers available: level 1 chargers and level 2 chargers. In the following sections, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each product and share various products in these two categories.
