At home, the ___ connector is used to charge any non-Tesla electric vehicle.

• A. CCS1
• B. NACS
• C. CHAdeMO
• D. SAE J1772

Answer: (D)

Home charging for non-Tesla EVs uses the SAE J1772 connector. This is the standard Level 2 AC charging plug used by most non-Tesla vehicles in North America, compatible with typical home charging equipment and delivering up to about 240 V at around 32 A for overnight charging. Tesla vehicles use a different connector (NACS), though adapters exist to use J1772. The other options are primarily DC fast charging standards used on public networks (CCS1 and CHAdeMO) or Tesla’s own North American standard, which is why they aren’t the usual home connector for non-Tesla cars.
