using j1772 for fxs in canada?
« on: June 03, 2018, 05:26:05 AM »

hi everybody i just bought a 2018 zero fxs. and I want to take adventage of all the j1772 plug in my city for charging.
here is my question: with a adapter from http://www.tucsonev.com/ , can I power one or more quick chargers? I know they can take 220v but here in north america our 220v is 2 phase 110v combined. does the quick charger can only take one phase 220v like in europe? can it take both?

North America "2 phase" is actually split phase. Each hot leg is 180 degrees from the other hot leg. When you measure from leg to leg it is double from any single leg to neutral. So, what you want will work without any problem.
