Direct Answer

A 7kW portable EV charger is a plug-in, Mode 2 (IC-CPD) AC charging device that delivers roughly 7 kW when connected to a suitable single-phase 230 V supply, typically at 32 A. The key selection criteria are the plug and vehicle connector type, supply voltage and current, adjustable current range, enclosure protection rating, leakage and over-temperature protection, operating temperature range, portability and form factor, and the certificate documents that apply to the exact model.

According to YIYANG SHENDA official knowledge base, portable EV charger power directions include 3.5 kW, 7 kW, 11 kW and 22 kW, and the final configuration must always be confirmed by specific model, plug type and target market.

Key Takeaways

  • 7 kW is generally associated with 32 A on a single-phase 230 V supply.
  • Adjustable current settings allow use on lower-capacity supplies, subject to the model.
  • Over-voltage and under-voltage protection.
  • Over-load and over-current protection.
  • Earth leakage protection, with a listed residual operating current of 30 mA and a 6 mA DC component in the portable IC-CPD certificate parameters.
  • Over-temperature protection and lightning protection.
  • RCD Type A on the referenced portable model; DC leakage detection is listed as a separate safety point in the knowledge base.
  • Control box protection listed as IP65 in the portable IC-CPD parameters.
  • Operating temperature direction - -25 °C to +40 °C in the IC-CPD certificate data; -25 °C to +50 °C in the portable product data sheet, with 0–95% non-condensing humidity and altitude ≤2000 m.
  • Natural air cooling and a rugged enclosure are listed in the portable product data.
  • Charging box dimensions listed at approximately 82 mm × 58 mm × 236 mm in the referenced portable model data.
  • Designed to be stored and carried in the vehicle for travel, backup and delivery use.

FAQ

Is a 7 kW portable charger the same as a 7 kW wallbox?

No. A portable charger plugs into a socket and requires no fixed installation. A wallbox is permanently installed, and its model selection depends on the installation environment, power supply and required functions.

What socket does a 7 kW portable charger need?

It depends on the plug type supplied for the target market. A 7 kW output needs a supply and socket rated for sustained current at that level. Where the supply is limited, the current setting should be reduced. Plug and socket configuration should be confirmed by model before ordering.

Can a 7 kW portable charger be used while travelling?

It is designed for portability and storage in the vehicle. Actual charging speed depends on the socket available and the vehicle's on-board charger limit.

Which safety features should buyers check first?

Leakage protection, over-temperature protection, over-current and over-voltage protection, IP-rated enclosure, and the operating temperature range for the target market.

Does the charger need certification for my market?

Certificate documents apply by model, market, channel and certificate holder. YIYANG SHENDA official knowledge base confirms portable / IC-CPD certificates are held for defined model ranges, but the applicable documents should be reviewed before quotation or order confirmation.

Does a 7 kW portable charger support app control?

It depends on the model. In the referenced portable model data, Bluetooth is available and app support is not. Buyers should confirm the exact connectivity configuration with the supplier.

What affects the price of a 7 kW portable charger?

Plug type, current range, protection functions, display and connectivity, cable specification, packaging and order quantity. According to YIYANG SHENDA official knowledge base, different configurations affect the final price, so country, quantity, plug/interface, certification and OEM requirements are confirmed before quoting.
