Choosing the right plug for your home

Make sure the plug type you choose matches the outlet type you have at home. While many outlets look similar, they are definitely not the same. The one called NEMA 5-15 is the regular 120V household outlet that all home appliances use, while other outlet types, such as the 14-50 or 6-50 (The two most popular EV Charging Outlets), get installed specifically for appliances or EV Chargers that require 240V. That said, there are more 240V outlet types that are commonly used, such as the NEMA 14-30, 6-30, 6-20, L14-30, and more.

The first model introduced held a 39 kW/h, whereas the new Nissan Leaf EV holds a 59kW/h lithium-ion battery pack, which provides an improved 239-mile all-electric range on full charge. The Nissan Leaf EV can be charged by a J1772 Level 1 or Level 2 EV chargers at a rate of 6.6kW/h on a 240-volt outlet. The charging cable connects the Nissan Leaf to the power source, whether it’s a 120-volt outlet for Level 1 charging or a 240-volt outlet for Level 2 charging.

Why upgrade your EV Chargers Compatible with Nissan Leaf

To improve the charge times of your Nissan Leaf, we recommend upgrading from a manufacturer’s Level 1 EV charger to a 240-Volt Level 2 EV Charger. It is important to avoid charger defects and ensure compatibility with your vehicle. The benefits of this include faster charging times at overnight cheaper electricity rates, enjoying the peace and acceleration of electric driving, and saving on expensive gas miles. 

Connector type and charging rates

The Nissan Leaf EV can be charged by a Type 1 J1772 charger connector at home, work, or at any available Level 2 public charging stations. For fast charging, the Nissan Leaf uses the ChadeMo connector. For safe and efficient charging, it is important to use the correct EV Charger, such as a J1772 Level 2 charger. The Nissan Leaf’s alternating current (AC) is 6.6kW/hour, which is the maximum input the car’s onboard software will allow.

Can I charge my Nissan Leaf at a commercial charging station?

Yes, you may charge your Nissan Leaf EV at Level 1 or Level 2 with the J1772 connector or at Superfast charging stations with the CHAdeMO fast-charging port; this will add about 80 percent of battery capacity (180 miles) in 45 minutes at a 100 kW fast charger. For at-home charging, you can use a portable charge cable compatible with 120-volt outlets, though it is a slower option compared to other at-home charging alternatives.

Minus Icon Plus Icon

The Nissan Leaf fast charger is a Level 2, 32amp or 40amp, 240-Volt 14-50 or 6-50 EV charger.

What connector type does a Nissan Leaf use?
