Proton New Energy Technology (Pro-Net) and EV Connection (EVC) have launched a profit-sharing initiative to install free EV chargers in 100 condominiums under the Pro-Net x EVC Condominium EV Charging Infrastructure Programme. The chargers, including installation and compliance costs, come at no expense to management, with profits shared between EVC and the property. Charging fees for Proton…

In this blog post, we will guide you on exactly what to look for when shopping for a home charging point. So let's get straight into the point:

Select the right power:

Experts recommend purchasing a home charging point with at least 30 amps of power and connecting it to a circuit breaker capable of handling at least 40 amps. In approximately an hour, you should be able to add 30 miles of range. Some EVs can get by with fewer amps, but buying more capacity than you need now makes the installation "future proof" if you later trade in the vehicle for one that can accommodate the additional capacity. While less-priced chargers produce 15 amps, it's a waste of money if your EV can handle more power. This is because charging is basically limited to 15 miles of range every hour.

Think about the cord:

Although all home charging points utilize a standard socket to connect to 240-volt outlets, the length of the cord needed to connect the car to the electrical grid varies from model to model. Make sure the charger you purchase has enough cord to readily reach your car's charging outlet. Less expensive models often have 15-foot lengths, however, this may not be enough if the car's port is on the other end of the garage from the accessible power supply.

Ponder the portability:

Although a hard-wired and permanently mounted home charging point is more beautiful, a portable unit that just plugs into a 240-volt outlet and hangs on the wall will often suffice. The benefit here is portability, in addition to not needing to pay an electrician to hook it up. If you move residences, have a second home, or need to move the charger to a new spot within the garage, you can easily carry it with you.

Consider the connectivity:

Higher-end and smart home charging points, like so many other items these days, are Wi-Fi equipped, allowing an EV owner to monitor and control the charging process from their smartphone. Some smart chargers can talk with your power company to charge solely during off-peak periods for lower prices, and a few can even receive commands from Amazon's Alexa virtual assistant.

Investigate about the incentives:

An all-electric vehicle in India or an EV has rechargeable electrical energy storage on-board that works as a source of energy. For the electric motor, which moves or drives the vehicle. It does not have any conventional internal combustion (IC) engine that burns fuel or gas for the propulsion of the vehicle. An EV does not burn any fuel for propulsion thus it does not have any tailpipe exhaust.

An electric vehicle in India can be charged using a charging unit called EV chargers plugged into an external source of electric power. You can charge your EV using a slandered 120v outlet at home. You can also charge your EV at a dedicated charging station that will charge a vehicle faster than a home charger. While you are outdoors by paying some extra then that cost you charging at home. EV vehicles in India also use a regenerative braking system, which generates electricity by slowing down the vehicle when applied brake. The energy generated from the regenerative braking system is either stored in batteries or directly used by vehicles.

The range of an electric vehicle depends on the vehicle itself. Because every model or company has different batteries that have a different range. And, it also depends on the performance of the vehicle. An all-electric vehicle can run non-stop for a normal journey that is around 180km. Unless the weather conditions or not extreme because of extreme temperature.

Working of an electric vehicle or EV

All-electric vehicle has four basic components that make an electric vehicle work or move.

Energy storage units (high capacity batteries)

Inverter

AC/DC motor

Controller

Energy storage units are the high capacity batteries or supercapacitors that store the energy onboard. Currently, the most common method used by electric vehicle manufacturers is storing energy in chemical form; The battery work as a source of power to the electric motor in the vehicle. All the batteries in the vehicle are managed by BMS (Battery Management System).

The inverter is a device that converts the DC (direct current) to AC (alternating current) for the AC motor. The battery supply the power in direct current thus an inverter required to convert it to alternating current.

Electric Motor, the electric vehicle manufacturers uses both alternating currents (AC) motor and direct current (DC). The motor in electric vehicles converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. The mechanical energy generated by an electric motor is transferred to the wheels by a single-speed transmission.

The controller acts as a gateway to the motor and controls the flow of the electrical energy delivered by the batteries. AC Motor controls the speed of the electric motor and it also controls the energy required by other components. It is the brain of the electric vehicle.

Other components that contribute to the working of an electric vehicle

Charging port

On-board charger

Thermal system

Charging port, it used to charge the on-board chemical batteries by connecting to an external energy source.

On-board chargers, some of the vehicles have the alternating current motor, which can be used for the regeneration of electrical energy. The energy generated by an AC motor is first converted into direct current. By the onboard charger and stored in batteries or used by vehicles directly. This technology has increased the range of EVs. The thermal system, the electric motor produces heat, which leads to more use of energy and reduces the range of the vehicle. The cooling system helps in maintaining operating temperature for an electric motor, and other components. These components work together to make an electric car work or run.
