Estudio y desarrollo de un prototipo de estación de carga nivel L2 para vehículos eléctricos

Abstract

This work presents the study and development of a prototype of a charging station level L2. These stations are the most common type currently used in homes, garages, buildings and public places. These stations must be easily operated by users and must offer adequate security measures.

For the development of a charging station it is necessary to know the norms and standards that are used by the different electric vehicle manufacturers, it is also necessary to know about programming of microcontrollers, digital and analog electronics since the charging station works with high levels of power.

The prototype developed has dimensions of 300x250x120 mm, thanks to this small size can be implemented in domestic stations for personal use, as well as public stations, located throughout a city. The charging station is able to theoretically handle a maximum power level of 6.6 KW, however, after several tests at rated power, the electrical system delivered a maximum of 5.3 KW. The charging station has some additional features such as a display, a keyboard for its operation, an internet connection that allows the user to operate the station remotely, as well as receiving some parameters from the station on a mobile device.
