Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment
Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) supplies electricity to an electric vehicle (EV). Commonly called charging stations or charging docks, they provide electric power to the vehicle and use that to recharge the vehicle's batteries. EVSE systems include the electrical conductors, related equipment, software, and communications protocols that deliver energy efficiently and safely to the vehicle.

For many years, the two-bell charging system with movable armor was the only proper charging equipment but nowadays the bell-less rotating chute is dominating. The advantages of the bell-less top is the more accurate filling of the furnace and better gas tightness with higher top pressures. The stock level is measured either with a mechanical stock rod or with...
