The connector is circular in shape, with a flattened top edge; the original design specification carried an output electric power of 3–50 kW for charging battery electric vehicles using single-phase (230V) or three-phase (400V) alternating current (AC), with a typical maximum of 32 A 7.2 kW using single-phase AC and 22 kW with three-phase AC ...
In the context of domestic PV installations, the kilowatt (symbol kW) is the most common unit for nominal power, for example P peak = 1 kW. Colloquial English sometimes conflates the quantity power and its unit by using the non-standard label watt-peak (symbol W p), possibly prefixed as in kilowatt-peak (kW p), megawatt-peak (MW p), etc.
A kilowatt-hour (unit symbol: kW⋅h or kW h; commonly written as kWh) is a non-SI unit of energy equal to 3.6 megajoules (MJ) in SI units, which is the energy delivered by one kilowatt of power for one hour. Kilowatt-hours are a common billing unit for electrical energy supplied by electric utilities.

Everything you need to know about charging an electric car at home in 2025 ... to 100 percent takes about 15 to 20 hours using a 3.6 kW home charger, or eight to 12 hours with a 7 kW charger. That ...
We break down how much it costs to charge an electric vehicle at home and at public charging stations. Plus, whether installing a level 2 charger is worth it.
The Megawatt Charging System (MCS) is a charging connector under development for large battery electric vehicles. The connector will be rated for charging at a maximum rate of 3.75 megawatts (3,000 amps at 1,250 volts direct current (DC)).
