Uphuhliso lweTesla NACS Connector

Isixhumi se-NACS luhlobo lwesixhumi sokutshaja esisetyenziselwa ukudibanisa izithuthi zombane kwizikhululo zokutshaja ukuze kudluliselwe itshaja (umbane) ukusuka kwisikhululo sokutshaja ukuya kwizithuthi zombane. Isixhumi se-NACS senziwe yiTesla Inc kwaye sisetyenziswe kuyo yonke imakethi yaseMntla Melika ukutshaja izithuthi zeTesla ukusukela ngo-2012.

NgoNovemba ka-2022, isixhumi sokutshaja se-NACS okanye iTesla's proprietary electric vehicle (EV) kunye ne-charge port yavulwa ukuze isetyenziswe ngabanye abavelisi be-EV kunye nabaqhubi benethiwekhi yokutshaja ye-EV kwihlabathi liphela. Ukusukela ngoko, iFisker, iFord, iGeneral Motors, iHonda, iJaguar, iMercedes-Benz, iNissan, iPolestar, iRivian, kunye neVolvo babhengeze ukuba ukususela ngo-2025, izithuthi zabo zombane eMntla Melika ziya kuxhotyiswa nge-NACS charge port.

Yintoni i-NACS Connector?
Isixhumi seNorth American Charging Standard (NACS), esaziwa ngokuba yiTesla charging standard, yinkqubo yesixhumi sokutshaja sezithuthi zombane (EV) esaphuhliswa yiTesla, Inc. Sisetyenziswe kuzo zonke izithuthi zeTesla ezithengiswa eNorth America ukusukela ngo-2012 kwaye savulwa ukuze sisetyenziswe ngabanye abavelisi ngo-2022.

Isixhumi se-NACS sisixhumi esineplagi enye esinokuxhasa ukutshaja kwe-AC kunye ne-DC. Sincinci kwaye silula kunezinye izixhumi zokutshaja ngokukhawuleza ze-DC, ezifana nesixhumi se-CCS Combo 1 (CCS1). Isixhumi se-NACS sinokuxhasa amandla afikelela kwi-1 MW kwi-DC, anele ukutshaja ibhetri ye-EV ngesantya esiphezulu kakhulu.

Uphuhliso lwe-NACS Connector
I-Tesla yaphuhlisa isixhobo sokutshaja esikhethekileyo se-Tesla Model S ngo-2012, ngamanye amaxesha esibizwa ngokuba yi-Tesla charging standard. Ukususela ngoko, i-Tesla Charging standard isetyenzisiwe kuzo zonke ii-EV zabo ezilandelayo, i-Model X, i-Model 3, kunye ne-Model Y.

NgoNovemba ka-2022, iTesla yalibiza kwakhona eli qhagamshelo lokutshaja elikhethekileyo laba yi-“North American Charging Standard” (NACS) yaza yavula umgangatho ukuze iinkcukacha zifumaneke kwabanye abavelisi be-EV.

Ngomhla wama-27 kuJuni, ngo-2023, i-SAE International yabhengeza ukuba iza kuyilinganisa i-connector njenge-SAE J3400.

Ngo-Agasti 2023, iTesla yakhupha ilayisenisi kwiVolex yokwakha izihlanganisi zeNACS.

NgoMeyi ka-2023, iTesla kunye neFord babhengeze ukuba benze isivumelwano sokunika abanini beFord EV ukufikelela kwii-supercharger zeTesla ezingaphezu kwe-12,000 eMelika naseKhanada ukususela ekuqaleni kuka-2024. Izivumelwano ezifanayo phakathi kweTesla kunye nabanye abenzi be-EV, kuquka iGM, iVolvo Cars, iPolestar kunye neRivian, zabhengezwa kwiiveki ezalandelayo.

I-ABB ithe iza kubonelela ngeeplagi ze-NACS njengokhetho kwiitshaja zayo kwangoko nje ukuba uvavanyo nokuqinisekiswa kwesixhumi esitsha kugqityiwe. I-EVgo ithe ngoJuni iza kuqala ukusebenzisa izixhumi ze-NACS kwiitshaja ezinesantya esiphezulu kwinethiwekhi yayo yase-US kamva kulo nyaka. Kwaye iChargePoint, efakela kwaye ilawula iitshaja zamanye amashishini, ithe abathengi bayo ngoku banokuodola iitshaja ezintsha ezinezixhumi ze-NACS kwaye inokufaka kwakhona iitshaja zayo ezikhoyo ngezixhumi ezenziwe yiTesla.

Iinkcukacha zoBugcisa zeNACS
I-NACS isebenzisa uyilo lweephini ezintlanu – iiphini ezimbini eziphambili zisetyenziselwa ukuthwala umbane kuzo zombini – ukutshaja kwe-AC kunye nokutshaja ngokukhawuleza kwe-DC:
Emva kovavanyo lokuqala oluvumela ii-EV ezingezizo iiTesla ukuba zisebenzise izitishi zeTesla Supercharger eYurophu ngoDisemba ka-2019, iTesla yaqala ukuvavanya isixhumi esinee-dual-connector esithi “Magic Dock” kwiindawo ezithile zeNorth American Supercharger ngoMatshi ka-2023. IMagic Dock ivumela i-EV ukuba itshaje nge-NACS okanye i-Combined Charging Standard (CCS) version 1 connector, eya kubonelela ngezakhono zobugcisa phantse kuzo zonke iimoto zombane ezinebhetri ithuba lokutshaja.
