01 / INITIAL FOCUS

Europe

Begin with the vehicle and the installation.

Type 2 is a starting point for a European AC charging brief. For a portable unit, the supply-side plug must also match the destination country and the approved current.

  • Confirm single- or three-phase site supply and the vehicle's onboard AC limit.
  • Specify the exact country, input connection, cable length and installation context.
  • Request the documents applicable to the selected configuration and country before ordering.

02 / VEHICLE-SPECIFIC SELECTION

North America

Check Type 1 and NACS separately.

The vehicle's charging inlet and the supply connection are different decisions. Define Type 1 and NACS requirements separately and check the actual equipment against the vehicle. Product selection is currently under review.

  • Record the vehicle inlet and model year.
  • Confirm circuit, receptacle, voltage and permitted continuous load with the installer.
  • Check complete-product listing and any local installation or inspection requirements.

03 / REQUIREMENTS FIRST

Other markets

Use a country-specific brief.

Do not assume that a configuration selected for Europe or North America applies elsewhere. Imported vehicles, local electrical supplies and document requirements can differ within the same region.

  • Share the country, vehicle inlet and intended application.
  • Describe voltage, phases, input connection and installation conditions.
  • List required reports, declarations and local approvals for review.

A PRACTICAL RULE

Fit is more than
a connector.

Physical connection does not establish electrical compatibility, safe installation or compliance. Product suitability remains subject to the exact configuration and destination requirements.
