Power Factor Correctioni(PFC) Power factor correction (PFC) aims to improve power factor, and therefore power quality. It reduces the load on the electrical distribution system, increases energy efficiency and reduces electricity costs. It also decreases the likelihood of instability and failure of equipment. Power factor correction is obtained via the connection of capacitors(or Static Var...
Winter brings a unique set of challenges for electric vehicle (EV) owners, and one of the most common concerns is how EV batteries perform in cold temperatures. While EV batteries are designed to withstand a variety of conditions, cold weather can still impact their efficiency and range. This article will explore why cold weather affects EV batteries, how owners can mitigate these effects, and how...
Introduction Did you know that over 80 percent of EV charging in Europe and many Asia‑Pacific markets already happens at home? That simple statistic explains why residential AC chargers have become the unsung heroes of the e‑mobility revolution. In this post we’ll explore: How AC charging actually works Key hardware & smart‑software features ...
Yes, sometimes. Plug‑in AC chargers (e.g., NEMA 5‑15, 6‑20, 14‑50, or IEC plug types) are realistic DIY if an appropriately rated, existing receptacle is already present and code‑compliant. Hardwired EVSE, new circuits, or panel upgrades generally require permits, inspection, and often a licensed electrician. Many jurisdictions mandate it. The safe path: complete the eligibili...
Protecting Your EV Battery: The Role of Smart Home Charging Solutions EV batteries are expensive, sophisticated electrochemical systems. How you charge them—especially at home, where most charging happens—has a direct impact on long-term capacity, performance, and resale value. Smart home charging solutions turn a simple power outlet into a battery-aware system that manag...
We can definitively state that for high-power DC charging piles in gas stations or service areas, it is highly recommended, and in many cases essential, to install a Static Var Generator (SVG) or an Active Power Filter (APF) alongside them. The ideal solution is often a hybrid device that combines both functions, such as a Hybrid-APF or an Active Reactive Compenser (ARC). This is not an "opti...
As electric vehicle (EV) adoption continues to grow across Europe, Italy is accelerating its efforts to expand charging infrastructure. To support this transition, YTElect recently delivered 300 units of 22 kW three-phase AC charging stations to an Italian distributor — a major step toward strengthening the country’s public and private charging network. This deployment underscores YTEl...
Case Study: How YT EV Charging Guns Power the Future As electric vehicles (EVs) grow in popularity, the need for reliable, intelligent, and scalable charging solutions becomes more urgent. One company at the forefront is YT Electric. They have created a complete range of AC and DC charging guns. Many places use these guns, from city stations to highway rest stops. Let's examin...
