Legrand has released its first Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger for residential applications. Getting started with Legrand’s Plug-In Home Level 2 EV Charger is easy. Simply plug the non-networked unit into a 50A power outlet, indoors or out, and start charging. Equipped with an SAE J1772 Connector, the North American standard, the char- ger works with any electric vehicle (adapter required for Tesla models). Compact yet powerful, Legrand’s unit is rated for 40A and provides an output of 9.6kW for a consider- ably faster charge than Level 1 models and taking the EV’s battery from 0 to 100 percent in eight to 10 hours. It also delivers an extended range of up to 38 miles per hour of charging. ENERGY STAR-certified for efficiency, Legrand’s EV charger can also qualify users for potential rebates and tax credits.
