Charging Station
Charging stations are Point Places with the following properties:
- Category: Car services > charging station
- Name: Network maxkW (number of charging points)
- Lock: 2, if possible
- Address: add, if possible provide the housenumber
- Description: Include charging cost, if known.
If the charger is not associated with a network (e.g. a free charger provided private company), use "Charger" as the network name If the station has an option for quickly charging during a trip (maxkW > 25), you may add [- quick] behind the name (without the brackets). If the exactly kW is not known, use "L1" "L2" or "L3" to indicate the general range. Most EV chargers are L2.
- L1: typical wall socket
- L2: specialized AC equipment delivering 3 kW to 20 kW
- L3: specialized DC equipment delivering > 25 kW
Note re units kW (kilowatts) is calculated by multiplying volts (V) and amperes (A) and dividing by 1000. For example, you might find that a site has 208 V power rated at 30 A, which translates into 208*30/1000 = 6.2 kW.
Note re breakers vs. rated power Electrical codes require that circuit breakers be rate at 120% of the maximum continuous load. Hence a circuit that delivers 40A of power will have a 50A breaker. Some locations may say they have "50A service" (very typical at campgrounds and RV parks), which actually means that they have 50A breakers capable of delivering 40A.
