Specifications

Full specifications for LENZ Level 2 Plug-In Home Charger, 40 A
Charging
Output power
what this means: Output powerThe maximum power the charger delivers. Higher power means a faster charge. This figure is the unit's own amperage times its supply voltage, which is what power means on a single phase AC circuit, so it can read slightly below a maker's marketing figure: a 40 amp charger on 240 volts is 9.6 kW even where the box says 10.
9.6 kW
Max output current
what this means: Max output currentThe maximum current the unit draws. It sets the circuit breaker and wire size the install needs.
40 A
Charger level
what this means: Charger levelThe EVSE class. Level 2 runs on a 240 volt circuit; Level 1 uses a standard 120 volt outlet.
Level 2
Charging outputs
what this means: Charging outputsHow many vehicles the unit can connect to at once. Most home units have one.
1
Connectivity
what this means: ConnectivityHow the charger connects for app control, scheduling, and firmware updates, or whether it runs offline only.
Not networked
Idle power draw
what this means: Idle power drawPower the unit draws while plugged in but not charging. Lower means less standby waste.
5.3 W
Installation
Form factor
what this means: Form factorPortable units are cord sets that plug into an outlet and can travel in the car. Wall-mounted units install in one place, hardwired or on a dedicated outlet.
Wall-mounted
Power connection
what this means: Power connectionHow the unit connects to supply power: a NEMA plug that fits a matching 240 volt outlet, or hardwired into the circuit by an electrician. Verified from manufacturer documentation, and left blank where it is not yet confirmed.
NEMA 14-50 plug
Enclosure rating
what this means: Enclosure ratingThe NEMA or IP rating of the housing, which tells you whether the unit is built for outdoor mounting. NEMA 4 and IP55 or higher handle rain and dust; NEMA 3R is rain-resistant. Verified from manufacturer documentation.
NEMA 4X (IP67)
Input voltage
what this means: Input voltageThe supply voltage the unit runs on. Level 2 home chargers use 240 volts.
240 V
Cable and connector
Cable length
what this means: Cable lengthLength of the attached charging cable. A longer cable reaches across a driveway or to a second parking spot.
22 ft
Connector
what this means: ConnectorThe plug that connects to the vehicle. J1772 (also called Type 1) fits most non-Tesla EVs; NACS (the Tesla style plug, SAE J3400) is the emerging North American standard. Some models are sold in both, so you pick the version when you order. Verified from manufacturer specifications, and left blank where it is not yet confirmed.
J1772
Cable gauge
what this means: Cable gaugeAmerican Wire Gauge of the charging cable. A lower number is a thicker conductor.
8 AWG
Identity and provenance
Model number
what this means: Model numberThe manufacturer model number, useful for cross checking listings and permits. In some model numbers, x and # stand for variant positions such as color or cable length options.
EVSE-W1-40-A

Warranty
what this means: WarrantyThe manufacturer's stated warranty. Terms can differ by country. Some warranties require product registration or professional installation; the manufacturer's page has the conditions. Verified from manufacturer documentation.
3 years
Safety listing
what this means: Safety listingIndependent safety certification for the unit. UL Listed and ETL Listed entries are confirmed against the public UL and Intertek directories where possible, otherwise against the manufacturer's own documentation. A blank means we have not verified a listing, not that none exists.

A charger is a continuous load, so code sizes its circuit at 125 percent of the charger's rating: that breaker figure is the minimum, not a suggestion. On an older panel the wire run and any service upgrade can cost more than the charger itself, so price the electrical work before settling on an amperage. How big a charger actually finishes the job (US vehicle data).

Measured against the rest of the 33 to 40 A class, this model sits mid-range on output power, max output current, and cable length: nothing here is a high or a low worth calling out.
