Design of EV Charging Station Controlled by PLC

Abstract

Today, the reducing of the gasoline consumption in the transport sector is realized by increasing the number of the number of electrical vehicles (EVs) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle – PHEV. But the number of charging stations must also be increased. In this paper the authors present a complete solution at an AC charging station in mode 3, according of International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61851-1 Standard, with PLC-HMI.
