8 PHOENIX CONTACT
The CCS Type 1 was developed for the
North American market on the basis of
SAEJ1772 and IEC 62196-3. The universal
vehicle CCS inlet permits both single-phase
AC and fast DC charging.
In contrast to the European Type 2,
safety is guaranteed throughout the
charging process by means of a lever
locking mechanism. As soon as the
lever is actuated, the charging process
is immediately interrupted, which makes
it impossible to withdraw the vehicle
connector under load.
