Abstract:
A multi-standard compatible electric vehicle supply equipment includes a plurality of different electric vehicle connectors each of which corresponds to one of a plurality of different electric vehicle standards. A power converter inputs alternating current power and includes an output to output direct current power. A circuit is structured to selectively electrically connect a source of alternating current power to a number of the electric vehicle connectors, selectively electrically connect the output of the power converter to a selected one of the different electric vehicle connectors, employ a plurality of different communication protocols for the different electric vehicle connectors, detect connectivity of one of the different electric vehicle connectors with an electric vehicle and responsively select one of a plurality of different charging modes, and communicate with the electric vehicle through the selected one of the different electric vehicle connectors.
