Wall Connector Features
Speed
Wall Connectors can be used with Model S, Model 3 and Model X. It is fully compatible with Model Y, Model X and Model X. It can provide as much as 44 miles of charging and the maximum output is 11.5 kW or 48 amps, based on model.
Convenience
Wall Connector is compatible with all electrical systems. To accommodate a range of circuit breakers, it can be used to modify the power levels. Installation is possible in almost all workplaces, homes or condos as well as apartments because of this flexibility.. Its mobile Connector is 24 sq feet (7.3 meters) cable that is light and can be stored in your vehicle.
Connectivity
Wall Connector Wall Connector can connect remote diagnostics, track usage data as well as download software wirelessly by being connected to a Wi-Fi network. To improve user experience and include new features firmware updates will automatically be sent directly to wall connectors. Wall Connector.
Power sharing
This power sharing feature is great for households who need to charge multiple Tesla simultaneously, but do not be able to run them all. This allows up to four Wall Connectors, which can use the power of one circuit while still allowing your vehicles to receive a sufficient power to charge.
Access Control
You have total control over which vehicles can use the Wall Connector for charging thanks to the control of charging access. Without using a physical locking device, you can limit charging access using this wizard for commissioning.
Indoor/Outdoor Compatible
The slim design that comes with Wall Connector enables versatile, indoor or outdoor mounting.
The charging speed of vehicles
Install Wall Connector with the circuit breaker that matches the onboard charger of the vehicle to allow the most efficient home charging. Click the lightning bolt icon on the screen to view the maximum amps of your Tesla.
All charges are estimates.
Wall Connector can be used to support all electrical systems, even those that are not powered or in unusual power circumstances.
It’s best to set up an Wall Connector before you take delivery of your car. Installations typically take less than one hour, however, scheduling an electrician could take up to two weeks.
How do I install an electric car charger at home?
The question can have a simple and complex answer. These adjectives are used to describe virtually everything that is related to EVs, and the entire industry that they have spawned.
In this article, we will not just teach you the best way to recharge your electric vehicle and provide answers to a variety of questions. Examples include:
- What is an electric vehicle charging dock?
- What are the different types of charging stations for electric vehicles available?
- What is the price of charge stations for electric vehicles?
- How long does an electric car take to fully charge?
- What is the cost for charging for an electric vehicle?
- What are the types of electric vehicle charging stations there?
There are three types of basic electric vehicle charging stations. These stations are usually referred to as “electric vehicle service equipment” or EVSE. These stations can be simple or more complicated than you imagine.
What's a Level 1 charging station?
The Level 1 charger can be described as the least basic charging station of three. The charging cable included with electric vehicles when it is bought or leased is an one-level charger. The chargers plug directly into a standard grounded wall socket using the standard configuration plug and run on standard electrical current (110-120 volts AC).
Although level 1 chargers are efficient and inexpensive, their main problem is the long often excruciatingly long battery recharge times. The Level 1-charger should be able to offer between 5 and 6 miles per hour of charge for an electric vehicle (EV). If your car has 200 miles of range, it may require 35 to 50 hours to fully charge.
Level 1 solutions can only be used to charge plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV). In a typical PHEV, the battery can be recharged in a few hours.
What is a Level 2 Charging station?
This charger, Level 2, is the next on the ladder of charging stations for electric vehicles. Level 2 chargers are powered by circuits that are 240-volt, which is the same type that charge electric dryers.
Some level 2 charging stations can be carried and use the multi-pronged connector with an outlet for dryers. Many households have an outlet and circuit in their laundry rooms. It’s not a good idea to unplug the dryer to connect the electric car tesla charger.
The majority of charging stations in the Level 2 charging points are placed in homes by people who employ electricians to run an electrical circuit of 240 volts to the garage. Customers can “hard-wire” chargers into the circuit once they have the garage powered. It is also possible to connect a portable Level 2 wall-mounted charger into the 240-volt socket inside the garage. They can then take the Tesla wall charger along with them.
It can be costly to employ an electrician and modify the electrical system within your home. The big advantage is the quicker charging times that speed up the time to recharge. An EV battery can be charged at Level 2 in a fraction of the time it would take with Level 1. This makes it the most practical charging station for those who have an electric vehicle.
A PHEV with 200 mile range can be charged in 10 to 15 hours. A Level 2 charging station can be utilized with a PHEV to recharge the battery in just four hours.
What is a Level 3 Charging station?
An electric vehicle charging point at Level 3 cars can be described as the 3rd. It is intended to be used in commercial settings, or to be used by those who need to take a break for a short period before returning to their travels.
In Level 3 filling stations, DC fast chargers (DCFC) are offered. This means that charging times are able to be speeded up. In just under an hour, some Level 3 fast chargers can fully charge a battery after it has been fully charged. With the 350-volt or 750-volt charge system, the most recent EV models can recharge high-power batteries between 10% to 80% in as little as 20 minutes. The charging time of Level 3 devices are even shorter, despite their apparent speed at which they charge. It’s possible to compare Level 3’s charging speed against the time at a standard gas station.
Car charging at Level 3 system can easily cost $50,000. It is however highly unlikely that your energy provider will allow the installation of an Level 3 charging cord at your residence, even if you had that kind of cash to spend, since many residences don’t have electrical panels that can support it.
Connecting to the Wall
This third-generation Tesla Wall Connector was designed to be simple to install. Third generation Tesla Wall Connector comes with the open-wire box that has integrated terminals. This gives plenty of space to land wires. The entry points could be constructed by extending from top to bottom and the rear. To commission Wall Connectors and connect to customers’ internet networks installers must use their smartphone.
Wall Connector Commissioning
Wall Connector hosts Wi-Fi networks to allow the configuration of sizes for breaker as well as Wi-Fi connectivity and power sharing. The Wi-Fi networks broadcasts for five minutes following that the Wall Connector has been energized. It is also possible to enable it for an additional five minutes by pressing the button on the handle of the charging cable.
Cost
Prices for installation can vary dependent on the type of electrical system you use.
A simple installation will cost you anywhere from $750 to $1,500. If you require additional items to complete your installation, the cost will increase in line with the additional items.
Usually included:
- Material and service for professional installation
- Permit
- Inspection
- Warranty on installation
Usually, additional:
- The length along which the wire runs (distance between the electrical panel’s location and location of the installation)
- Additional sub-panel
- Trench (underground wires)
- Existing Main panel upgrade
- Pedestal installation
- Hidden cables hidden behind walls
