Ungakhetha kanjani isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esifanele?

Ungakhetha kanjani isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esifanele?

Halala! Usunqumile ngokuthenga imoto kagesi. Manje sekuza ingxenye eqondene ngqo nezimoto zikagesi (ama-EV): ukukhetha isiteshi sokushaja ikhaya. Lokhu kungabonakala kuyinkimbinkimbi, kodwa silapha ukuzokusiza!

Ngezimoto zikagesi, inqubo yokushaja ekhaya ibukeka kanje: ufika ekhaya; cindezela inkinobho yokukhulula imbobo yokushaja yemoto; phuma emotweni; thatha ikhebula esiteshini sakho esisha sokushaja sendlu (esizofika maduze) esiqhele ngamamitha ambalwa bese ulixhuma embobo yokushaja yemoto. Manje usungangena ngaphakathi ujabulele ukunethezeka kwendlu yakho njengoba imoto yakho iqeda iseshini yokushaja ngokuthula. Hhayi bo! Ubani owake wathi izimoto zikagesi ziyinkimbinkimbi?

Manje, uma usuyifundile i-Beginner's Guide yethu yezimoto zikagesi: Indlela yokushaja ekhaya, usuyazi ngezinzuzo zokuhlomisa ikhaya lakho ngesiteshi sokushaja sezinga lesi-2. Kunezinhlobo ezahlukene nezici ongakhetha kuzo, ngakho-ke silungiselele lo mhlahlandlela owusizo ukukusiza ukhethe isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esifanele.

Ngaphambi kokuthi uqale, nansi into ejabulisayo ezokwenza kube lula ukuthola isiteshi sokushaja ikhaya esifanele imoto yakho entsha:

ENyakatho Melika, zonke izimoto zikagesi (i-EV) zisebenzisa ipulagi efanayo yokushaja izinga lesi-2. Okuwukuphela okuhlukile yizimoto zeTesla eziza ne-adaptha.

Ngaphandle kwalokho, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhethe ukushayela i-Audi, i-Chevrolet, i-Hyundai, i-Jaguar, i-Kia, i-Nissan, i-Porsche, i-Toyota, i-Volvo, njalo njalo, izimoto zikagesi ezithengiswa eNyakatho Melika zisebenzisa ipulagi efanayo—ipulagi ye-SAE J1772 ukuze ilingane—ukushaja ekhaya ngesiteshi sokushaja sezinga lesi-2. Ungafunda kabanzi ngalokhu kumhlahlandlela wethu Indlela Yokushaja Imoto Yakho Kagesi Ngeziteshi Zokushaja.

Phew! Manje ungaqiniseka ukuthi noma yisiphi isiteshi sokushaja sezinga lesi-2 osikhethayo sizohambisana nemoto yakho entsha kagesi. Manje, ake siqale ngokukhetha isiteshi sokushaja sasekhaya esifanele, akunjalo?

Ukukhetha indawo yokushaja ikhaya lakho

1. Upaka kuphi?

Okokuqala, cabanga ngendawo yakho yokupaka. Ingabe uvame ukupaka imoto yakho kagesi ngaphandle noma egaraji lakho?

Isizathu esiyinhloko sokuthi lokhu kubalulekile ukuthi akuzona zonke iziteshi zokushaja zasekhaya ezingamelani nesimo sezulu. Phakathi kwamayunithi angamelani nesimo sezulu, amazinga awo okumelana nawo azohluka kuye ngokuthi isimo sezulu sibi kangakanani.

Ngakho-ke, uma uhlala endaweni echaya i-EV yakho ezimweni zasebusika ezibandayo, imvula enkulu noma ukushisa okukhulu isibonelo, qiniseka ukuthi ukhetha isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esingabhekana nalezi zinhlobo zezimo zezulu ezimbi kakhulu.
Lolu lwazi lungatholakala esigabeni semininingwane kanye nemininingwane yesiteshi ngasinye sokushaja ikhaya esiboniswe esitolo sethu.

Ngokuphathelene nesimo sezulu esibi kakhulu, ukukhetha isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esinekhebula eliguquguqukayo kuyindlela engcono kakhulu yokuyilawula ezindaweni ezibandayo.

2. Uzosifaka kuphi isiteshi sakho sokushaja ekhaya?

Uma sikhuluma ngezintambo, uma ukhetha isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya; naka ubude bekhebula elihambisana nalo. Isiteshi ngasinye sokushaja sezinga 2 sinekhebula elihluka ngobude kusukela kwesinye iyunithi kuya kwesinye. Ucabanga ngendawo yakho yokupaka, sondeza endaweni eqondile lapho uhlela ukufaka khona isiteshi sokushaja sezinga 2 ukuze uqiniseke ukuthi ikhebula lizohlala isikhathi eside ngokwanele ukufinyelela echwebeni lemoto yakho kagesi!

Isibonelo, iziteshi zokushaja zasekhaya ezitholakala esitolo sethu esiku-inthanethi zinezintambo ezisukela ku-12 ft kuya ku-25 ft. Isincomo sethu ukukhetha iyunithi enekhebula okungenani elingama-18 ft ubude. Uma lobo bude bunganele, funa iziteshi zokushaja zasekhaya ezinekhebula elingama-25 ft.

Uma une-EV engaphezu kweyodwa yokushaja (unenhlanhla!), kunezinketho ezimbili ngokuyinhloko. Okokuqala, ungathola isiteshi sokushaja esikabili. Lokhu kungashaja izimoto ezimbili ngesikhathi esisodwa futhi kudinga ukufakwa endaweni lapho izintambo zingaxhuma khona kuzo zombili izimoto zikagesi ngesikhathi esisodwa. Enye inketho kungaba ukuthenga iziteshi ezimbili zokushaja ezihlakaniphile (okunye okwengeziwe ngalokho kamuva) bese uzifaka kusekethe eyodwa bese uzixhumanisa. Nakuba lokhu kukunika ukuguquguquka okwengeziwe ngokufakwa, le ndlela ngokuvamile ibiza kakhulu.

Ukufanisa isiteshi sakho sokushaja ikhaya nendlela yakho yokuphila

Yisiphi isiteshi sokushaja imoto yakho kagesi esizoshaja imoto yakho kagesi ngokushesha okukhulu?
Ukuthola ukuthi yisiphi isiteshi sokushaja ekhaya esinikeza isivinini sokushaja esisheshayo kuyindaba ethandwayo phakathi kwabashayeli bezimoto ezintsha ze-EV. Siyakuqonda: Isikhathi siyigugu futhi siyigugu.

Ngakho-ke masiqhubekele phambili—asikho isikhathi sokulahlekelwa!

Ngamafuphi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhetha yiphi imodeli, ukukhethwa kweziteshi zokushaja zezinga lesi-2 ezitholakala esitolo sethu esiku-inthanethi futhi ngokuvamile, kulo lonke elaseNyakatho Melika, kungashaja ibhethri eligcwele le-EV ubusuku bonke.

Noma kunjalo, isikhathi sokushaja i-EV sincike ezintweni eziningi eziguquguqukayo ezifana nalezi:

Usayizi webhethri le-EV yakho: uma lilikhulu, kuzothatha isikhathi eside ukushaja.
Umthamo wamandla aphezulu wesiteshi sakho sokushaja sasekhaya: noma ngabe ishaja yemoto engaphakathi ingamukela amandla aphezulu, uma isiteshi sokushaja sasekhaya singakhipha okuncane kuphela, ngeke siyishaje imoto ngokushesha okukhulu.
Umthamo wamandla weshaja ye-EV yakho: ingamukela kuphela umthamo wamandla ophezulu ku-120V kanye no-240V. Uma ishaja inganikeza okwengeziwe, imoto izonciphisa amandla okushaja futhi ithinte isikhathi sokushaja.
Izici zemvelo: ibhethri elibandayo kakhulu noma elishisa kakhulu linganciphisa amandla amaningi okusebenzisa futhi ngaleyo ndlela lithinte isikhathi sokushaja.
Phakathi kwalezi ziguquguquko, isikhathi sokushaja semoto kagesi sehlela kulezi ezimbili ezilandelayo: umthombo wamandla kanye nomthamo wokushaja wemoto engaphakathi.

Umthombo wamandla: Njengoba kushiwo kumthombo wethu owusizo i-A Beginner's Guide to Electric Cars, ungaxhuma i-EV yakho ku-plug evamile yasekhaya. Lezi zinikeza ama-volt angu-120 futhi zingathatha amahora angaphezu kwangu-24 ukuletha ibhethri eligcwele. Manje, ngesiteshi sokushaja sezinga lesi-2, sandisa umthombo wamandla ube yi-volt engu-240, okungaletha ibhethri eligcwele emahoreni amane kuya kwayisishiyagalolunye.
Umthamo weshaja ye-EV ebhodini: Ikhebula olixhuma emotweni kagesi liqondisa umthombo wamandla kagesi kushaja ye-EV emotweni eguqula ugesi we-AC osuka odongeni ube yi-DC ukuze ushaje ibhethri.
Uma ungumuntu othanda izinombolo, nansi ifomula yesikhathi sokushaja: isikhathi sokushaja esiphelele = kWh ÷ kW.

Okusho ukuthi, uma imoto kagesi ineshaja engu-10-kW kanye nebhethri engu-100-kWh, ungalindela ukuthi kuthathe amahora ayi-10 ukushaja ibhethri eliphelelwe ngokuphelele.

Lokhu kusho nokuthi noma ngabe uhlomisa ikhaya lakho ngesinye seziteshi zokushaja ezinamandla kakhulu zezinga lesi-2—njengesinye esinganikeza u-9.6 kW—izimoto eziningi zikagesi ngeke zishaje ngokushesha.
