Voltage, measured in volts (V), represents the electrical force that pushes electrons, while amperage, in amperes (A), quantifies the flow rate of these electrons (a measure of electric current).
These two fundamental quantities interact to determine the charging power (P) according to the formula P=U×I (where U is Voltage and I is Current). High voltage allows for faster energy transfer, while amperage indicates the intensity of the current supplied.
The correct combination of voltage and amperage is crucial for optimising an Electric Vehicle’s charging speed, ensuring compatibility between the vehicle’s capacity and the available charging infrastructure.
