This section documents the design and repair of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The industry term for this equipment is Electric Vehicle Servicing Equipment or EVSE, and includes both Level 1 / 2 charging stations that connect AC electricity to the car, and DC Fast Charging (DCFC) stations that connect DC electricity to the car.

In accordance with this RepairWiki's guidelines, this section should be structured with manufacturers at top (listed on this page), then device models, then documents specific to those models, as illustrated here. Initially, though, it will skip the extra manufacturer layer, until we start building up a larger body of information.

Resources

Below are three internet forums where DIY repairs of EVSEs are often discussed. They represent the earliest adopters of EVs, many of whom were technically minded (engineers or even EEs) so had no fear of diving in.

Search of these forums using their own site often works poorly, so provided here for convenience are links to use Google to search those forums, via the "site:" directive. After clicking on that search link and getting to a Google search results page, add your search terms (e.g. "Clipper Creek") after the "site" directive and re-run the search.
