Level 2 (AC) charging stations are what we think of when we imagine an EV charger. You've likely seen these at multifamily residences, corporate offices, and sports arenas. AC charging stations offer reliable, all-purpose charging for longer charging sessions.
Level 3 (DC) charging stations provide high-power charging for shorter charging sessions making them ideal for commercial and industrial settings such as rest stops or retail businesses. The quick turnaround enables drivers to recharge during a short break as opposed to being plugged in all day for a full charge.
