The average lifespan of a Level 2 EV charger is generally more than 20 years if properly installed and maintained. These chargers are designed to be more durable and reliable compared to Level 1 chargers, which typically last between 10 to 15 years. Factors that can influence the lifespan of a Level 2 EV charger include usage frequency, environmental conditions, installation quality, and regular maintenance routines.
Level 2 chargers are known for their efficiency, operating at 240 volts and offering faster charging times compared to Level 1 chargers. While the industry estimates the lifespan of most EV chargers to be around 10 years, well-maintained Level 2 chargers can last significantly longer. Proper care, such as regular cleaning and ensuring secure connections, can extend their operational life.
