VS TO NNECTORS

For those looking to charge in a flash , the combined charging system ( CCS ) connectors are used for this . With two different types , this combines either the Type 1 charger with DC charging capability , or Type 2 with DC function . The CHAdeMO socket is also DC-enabled and , along with the CCS Combo Type 1 , is used primarily in the US . In Europe , the CHAdeMO is also used for DC charging , as well as a CCS Combo Type 2 .
For a lot of drivers who own Teslas , they will have priority plugs for Tesla Superchargers with the optional adapters to connect to other units across the globe .
