Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772

Technical Specifications

North American AC Charging Receptacle | B2B OEM/Wholesale Supply

Product Overview

The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 is a female AC charging receptacle designed to the SAE J1772 Type 1 interface, used either as a vehicle-side inlet on North American- and Japanese-market EVs, or as a fixed socket outlet on Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging stations and wallboxes sold in the North American market. As an experienced J1772 inlet manufacturer, we produce this Type 1 EV charging socket with precision power contacts, a durable housing, and standard pilot/proximity signal pins, built to mate reliably with any SAE J1772-compliant plug. For Type 1 charging receptacle buyers—including EV OEMs, North American wallbox brands, and retrofit kit builders—this is a standardized connector component, not a complete charging system.

Standard & Interface Compliance

The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 is designed to the SAE J1772 Type 1 interface, the dominant AC charging connector standard for North America and Japan. It follows the standard Type 1 pin arrangement of two power contacts (L1, N) plus protective earth and control pilot / proximity detection pins, with a keyed housing that prevents mating with non-compliant connectors. As a J1772 socket outlet supplier, we produce the receptacle to the Type 1 dimensional and pinout requirements so it mates correctly with standard J1772 plugs from charging cables, portable EVSE, and wallbox guns. For SAE J1772 connector manufacturer buyers serving the North American aftermarket, this standard-compatible design reduces integration and compatibility risk.

Electrical Ratings

The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 is offered in common AC current ratings from 16A up to 80A, covering typical Level 1 (120V AC) and Level 2 (208V / 240V AC) installations used in North America. Contact plating and cross-section are selected per current rating to keep contact resistance stable over repeated mating cycles. As a 40A J1772 inlet manufacturer for the high-volume home-charging segment, we recommend that buyers size the inlet together with the cable, breaker, and on-board charger rating as a system, rather than selecting the highest available rating regardless of the overall circuit design. This system-level matching is particularly important for vehicle charging inlet J1772 programs where the inlet is one link in a safety-rated charging circuit.

Mechanical & Enclosure Design

The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 features a heat-resistant engineering-plastic housing with an integrated latch mechanism, a spring-loaded protective cap on vehicle-inlet variants, and a mounting flange pattern that fits common wallbox and vehicle panel cutouts. The internal contact carrier isolates power pins from signal pins, and the housing is rated for outdoor exposure when used on wallbox sockets. As a J1772 receptacle manufacturer, we supply the inlet with standard mounting hardware and multiple cable-exit orientations to accommodate different enclosure designs. For Type 1 inlet socket buyers, flange dimensions, cap type, and cable exit direction are the key mechanical parameters to confirm during sampling.

Installation & Applications

The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 is used across two main application families: as a vehicle inlet on BEV and PHEV models built for the North American and Japanese markets, and as a fixed socket outlet on Level 2 AC wallboxes and public AC charging posts that use a separate J1772 plug-and-cable. It is also a common replacement part for damaged inlets on existing vehicles and wallboxes. As a North American EV socket supplier, we support EV OEMs, charging station manufacturers, retrofit shops, and maintenance depots. For EV inlet OEM J1772 production programs, the inlet is typically delivered as a component ready for integration into the vehicle or wallbox assembly line.

OEM / Customization & Batch Supply

We offer J1772 socket assembly and custom-inlet services for customers who require tailored housing geometry, cable exit direction, contact plating, or pre-terminated harness integration. The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 can be supplied as a bare receptacle, a pigtail with flying leads, or a pre-terminated harness matching specific vehicle or wallbox mounting requirements. Our AC charging inlet Type 1 production supports both sample quantities for engineering validation and batch quantities for production programs. As a component-level J1772 inlet supplier, we provide dimensional drawings, pinout documentation, and incoming-inspection reports so buyer engineering teams can integrate the part into their own BOM efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this inlet used on the vehicle or on the wallbox? The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 can be used in both positions: as a vehicle-side inlet on J1772-compatible EVs and PHEVs, or as a fixed socket outlet on a Level 2 wallbox or charging post that mates with a separate J1772 plug. Specify your intended application when ordering so we can confirm the correct flange, cap, and cable-exit variant. As a Type 1 charging receptacle supplier, we do not sell this as a completed charger.

Q: Does this inlet include charging electronics? No. The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 is a passive connector receptacle. It carries power and CP/PP signal contacts but contains no control board, protection circuitry, or charging management. Those functions reside in the vehicle’s on-board charger and the upstream charging station. For complete Level 2 wallboxes, please refer to our wallbox product line.

Q: How does this relate to NACS / Tesla connectors? The Prise de recharge pour véhicules électriques de type 1, norme américaine SAE J1772 follows the J1772 Type 1 interface, which remains widely used on North American EVs and on existing Level 2 charging infrastructure. NACS (the Tesla-derived connector) is a separate interface. If your project requires NACS inlets instead, please specify; our standard J1772 product line is not interchangeable with NACS without a different connector.

Q: What current rating should I choose? Match the inlet rating to your planned Level 1 or Level 2 circuit: common home-charging configurations use 40A or 48A inlets, while higher-power applications may use 80A. As a J1772 inlet manufacturer, we recommend sizing contacts, cables, and breakers as a system rather than uprating the inlet alone.
