This device, powered by alternating current<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> (either in single or three-phase mode) brings together several components<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> that make the whole system an integral recharge system.<\/p>\n<h3>What fundamental characteristics must the Wallbox have?<\/h3>\n<p>Although there are different models of wall-mounted charging points<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> for electric vehicles, there are some fundamental functions<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> of the Wallboxes to protect the electrical system to which the car is connected and protect the batteries.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wallboxes &#8211; used to protect against electric shock and avoid voltage peaks<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> during the charging process to harmonize the power of the current. In this way, the Wallboxes protect the batteries of electric cars.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The Wallbox &#8211; used to know at all times the electricity consumption and<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>measure the energy consumed. This function is very useful because it helps to avoid surprises<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> in the payment of electricity<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> and even resolves conflicts in the case of being installed in a community car park.<\/li>\n<li>Wallboxes &#8211;\u00a0used to program recharging processes for electric vehicles when taxes are cheaper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Where are the wallboxs installed?<\/h3>\n<p>The wallbox or wall-mounted charging points, as its name suggests, are charging points<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> installed on the wall of the garage. Thus, this device receives the energy of the installation of the house or the garage.<\/p>\n<h3>What types of connectors use the wall-box?<\/h3>\n<p>These wall-mounted charging points (as they are also commonly referred to) are ready<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> to manage electrical power using various types of connectors. It is important to remember that not all electric vehicles<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> carry the same connection to the network. Thus, electric cars can use Schuko connection<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span> (connection with normal house plug), Type 1 Sae J1772 or Type 3 Mennekes. These connectors give us the opportunity to connect our vehicle to the network.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are some examples of electric vehicles and their particular network connections:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Nissan Leaf &#8211; Sae J1772 load connectors<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Renault Fluence &#8211; connector Sae J1772<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; RenaulKangoo &#8211; IEC 62196 connector<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Renault Twizy &#8211; Schuko connector<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Peugeot Ion &#8211; connector Sae J1772<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Volkswagen Golf &#8211; Mennekes connector<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Renault Zoe &#8211; Mennekes connector<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Chevrolet Volt &#8211; connector Sae J1772<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We use the term Wallbox to refer to the wall-mounted charging point for electric vehicles.
