How to choose the right DC charging gun adapter? You need to pay attention to the following points: confirm the charging gun interface type, adapter interface type, and whether the adapter rated current and voltage match the charging pile and vehicle.
Specifically, the following points need to be considered:
1. Charging gun interface type:
DC charging guns usually use interface standards such as CCS, CHAdeMO, GB/T, etc. You need to confirm what the interface type of your charging gun is.
Adapter: needs to be able to match the interface of the charging gun. For example, if your charging gun is a CCS interface, then the adapter needs to be a CCS interface.
2. Adapter interface type:
The other end of the adapter: needs to match the interface of the charging pile or vehicle you want to connect.
For example, if your adapter is a CCS interface, then you can connect to a charging pile or vehicle that supports the CCS interface.
3. Adapter rated current and voltage:
The rated current and voltage of the adapter: cannot exceed the range supported by your charging gun and charging pile, otherwise it may cause safety hazards.
Make sure that the rated current and voltage supported by the adapter match the rated current and voltage of the charging gun and charging pile, or are slightly higher, but not lower.
4. The rated current matches the socket:
If a 16A charging gun is given a 16A to 10A adapter, and the operator indicates that it can be used on a 10A rated socket, please note that according to standard requirements, the output current cannot exceed 13A when using a 16A plug and socket; the output current cannot exceed 8A when using a 10A plug and socket.
Therefore, even if the adapter is 16A to 10A, you need to ensure that your socket is rated for 16A to ensure safety.
Summary:
When choosing a DC charging gun adapter, you should choose according to the interface type of the charging gun, the interface type of the adapter, the rated current and voltage, and the compatibility of the charging pile and the vehicle. Only by ensuring that the adapter matches the interface, current and voltage of the charging gun, charging pile and vehicle can the charging be safe and carried out normally.
