Charging stations for Nissan electric vehicles

This catalog contains chargers for Nissan that fit various models such as Leaf, Sylphy, Ariya, e-NV 200 and more. The charging speed of an electric car depends on several factors, including the number of phases in the car's charging port and the type of outlet used. Each Nissan model can have different charging characteristics, and it's important to choose the right charger to ensure optimal charging speed and safety.

Why is it important to install a charging station despite having a standard device for Nissan?

Many people wonder which charging equipment is best for Nissan and what are its advantages over the standard charger that comes with the car. The standard Nissan chargers provided with the car are convenient for recharging outside of normal conditions. However, they have their own limitations that make them not really suitable for regular use.

First, the limited power output of the OEM charger is only 2.2 or 3 kW, which is often not enough to fully charge a vehicle, especially if a quick charge to full capacity is needed. In addition, the relays in OEM units are not designed for frequent and long-term use, which can lead to their rapid wear and tear and breakdown. It is also worth considering that the regular Nissan chargers have limited functionality.

Unlike more modern charging stations, they do not allow you to track charging parameters, schedule it by time or use "smart" features that can be useful in everyday use. Therefore, installing a charging station at home or at work may be a smarter solution. Usually, charging stations have much more power, which makes charging a Nissan electric car much faster. They are also equipped with various safety mechanisms such as protection against voltage fluctuations, current leakage, and overheating.

Additional features such as smartphone charging control, charging scheduling capability and statistics tracking make using a charging station more convenient and efficient. And in the long run, charging at home or at work can be more cost-effective than at public charging stations.

How to choose a charging station for Nissan: the basics

When choosing the right charging station for a particular Nissan model, there are several important aspects to consider in order to ensure your car is charged efficiently. Many people wonder which charging station to choose for Nissan and whether they should favor universal or branded models. However, there is no need to worry about special stations for Nissan.

The most important thing here is quality and certification. It is best to choose a high quality charger with proper certifications that will provide efficient charging not only for Nissan, but also for other electric vehicles. Sometimes there is no point in overpaying for a brand, as Nissan charging stations are often similar devices from other manufacturers, just labeled Nissan.

The choice of wattage and phases depends on the specifics of your car and the electrical grid. For European Nissan models with a Type 2 connector, 11kW or 22kW chargers are the most suitable options, providing fast charging without overloading the grid. For American Nissan models that use the Type 1 connector and operate on a single-phase grid, chargers with the appropriate wattage will be suitable. If you have multiple electric vehicles, it's important to consider the power consumption of the most powerful one when selecting station capacity.

Pay attention to balancing modules, which will ensure that your Nissan is charged efficiently even when your grid power is limited. Use adapters if your Nissan car has an American Type 1 connector and you plan to charge it at European stations. And remember: a certified, quality electric charging station is your best choice. When choosing a unit, pay attention to power, number of phases, and safety certifications.

What charging equipment for Nissan should be

Nissan owners who are looking to ensure the comfort and safety of their electric vehicle wonder about the choice of charging equipment for their vehicle. Quality customized charging stations for a particular Nissan brand ensure that the vehicle can be charged quickly and safely without risking damage to the battery. But what should the optimal charger be?

Key features of a Nissan charger include electric shock protection (EPS), which prevents current leakage when it comes in contact with metal surfaces. Ground monitoring ensures safety in the event of an insulation break, automatically disconnecting charging in the event of a hazard. Voltage quality check prevents damage to vehicle electronics from high voltage. Additional features such as remote access, display, and others increase ease of use, although they have no impact on safety.

Optimal charging locations for Nissan electric vehicles

The most convenient place to charge your Nissan is your home, where your car is waiting for its next trip. Here you can use almost any 220 volt outlet for charging. For safety, it is recommended that you use a ground disconnect charger, especially in unexpected situations. Some Nissan owners come up with unusual ways to charge in apartment buildings, including extension cords or temporary fixtures through a window. However, this may not be completely safe.

A safer option is to run a wire down an elevator shaft or run a wire to a parking space in an underground garage. Installing a quality charging station in the garage is usually the most convenient solution, as it ensures that electricity is available and close to home.

Tips for properly charging Nissan electric vehicles

First, make sure your electric vehicle's connector is dry. Plug the charging equipment into an outlet and wait for a ready indication from the control unit. It is important to avoid charging your vehicle from a regular outlet while using a charging cable without a control unit, as this can damage your vehicle. Preparation takes only a few seconds to a minute, depending on the manufacturer. When the "Done" indication appears, you can start connecting the plug to the electric vehicle. Disconnecting the charger also needs to be done in the correct sequence. First, unlock your Nissan to stop drawing current, then after some time, remove the plug from the electric car. And only after that, unplug the charger from the outlet.
