A charging station is a device that provides energy replenishment for electric vehicles, similar to a fuel pump at a gas station. It can be mounted on the ground or a wall, installed in public buildings (such as office buildings, shopping malls, public parking lots, etc.) and residential community parking lots or charging stations. It can charge various models of electric vehicles according to different voltage levels.

The input end of the charging station is directly connected to the AC power grid, and the output end is equipped with charging plugs for charging electric vehicles. Charging stations typically offer both conventional and rapid charging options. Users can swipe a specific charging card on the human-machine interaction interface provided by the charging station to perform charging operations and print corresponding cost data. The charging station display can show data such as the amount of charge, cost, and charging time.
