Mode 3 EV Charger
Mode 3 Charging represents the standard solution for safe and efficient AC charging of electric vehicles. It connects EVs to dedicated charging stations—such as wall-mounted or pedestal chargers—rather than conventional household outlets. This setup ensures higher charging power, intelligent communication between the vehicle and the charger, and advanced protection features for both users and equipment. In Europe, Mode 3 Charging typically uses Type 2 connectors compliant with the IEC 62196-2 standard, the officially adopted interface across the region and now widely supported worldwide. As a result, Mode 3 Charging has become the preferred choice for both residential and public charging applications.
