48 AMP EVSE NON-NETWORKED

A “48 AMP EVSE NON-NETWORKED” is a hardwired Level 2 home EV charger (EVSE) that delivers up to 48 amps at 240V (~11.5 kW) and does not include internet/app/cloud connectivity features.

🔌 What it is

It’s a simple, dedicated EV charging station used in residential or light commercial installs. The “non-networked” part means:

• No Wi-Fi or app control
• No load management system
• No remote monitoring
• Just basic plug-in charging (J1772 standard)

A common example is the Leviton EV480, which is a 48A Level 2 EVSE, hardwired, non-networked unit.

⚡ Electrical requirements

Typical specs for this type of unit:

• 48A output (continuous load)
• Requires a 60A dedicated breaker
• Hardwired installation only (no plug like 14-50)
• 240V single-phase supply
• ~11.5 kW charging power

🚗 What it’s used for

• Home garage EV charging
• Fleet / light commercial charging
• Users who want fast charging without smart features
• Compatible with all EVs using SAE J1772 (Tesla needs adapter)

🧠 Simple explanation

This is a basic high-power home EV charger that delivers full 48-amp fast Level 2 charging but doesn’t connect to apps or the internet—it just charges your car reliably when plugged in.

🔧 Why people choose non-networked 48A units

• Lower cost than “smart” chargers
• Fewer electronics = often more durable
• Simpler install and troubleshooting
• Meets most home charging needs (overnight full charge)
