Perks of an EV Charging Station for Your Hospitality Property
Charging Flexibility
We make controlling your charging stations convenient with our 3 connectivity options: non-networked, WiFi or 4G LTE cellular, giving you the flexibility to choose how you connect. EvoCharge also offers RFID card readers which makes generating passive income simple.
Safety and Cleanliness
Our unique cable management solutions make charging areas OSHA and ADA compliant. Design your station with safety and cleanliness in mind with EvoReel. EvoReel self-retracts, keeping cables off the floor and out of the way. Our Cable Retractor will also help keep your space clean and organized.
Simple Network Management
With Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP), you have control over the third party network you use. No getting locked into a network—you can choose what network to go with and change it later if you need or want. If you choose one of our preferred network partners, your station will arrive pre-configured to that network.

Frequently Asked Questions
OCPP—or Open Charge Point Protocol—means the EV charger doesn’t require a specific network to work and it can be connected to any local charging network or utilities company. More information about OCPP and its benefits can be found on our resources page.
Yes. Multiple electrical vehicle charging stations can be installed at the same hospitality property. Both the iEVSE and iEVSE Plus units can be installed with up to 20 units in a grouping. This allows you to control the output of current to each station, also known as local load balancing or management.
The standard electric vehicle in North America uses the SAE J1772—also known as the J plug—to charge via the vehicle’s port. The J plug is compatible with all EVs and PHEVs except Tesla vehicles. For Teslas, an adaptor is included with the vehicle at purchase or can be purchased online.
The EVSE and iEVSE stations are installed by plugging them into a 240v outlet with NEMA 6-50 plug type or they can be hardwired directly, but the iEVSE Plus can only be hardwired. A certified electrician should handle the installation of an electrical source, like the 240v outlet, and for hardwire installation of charging systems.
EvoCharge EVSE and iEVSE units require 208-240VAC plug, Single Phase and a dedicated 40A supply circuit. The supply circuit can be adjusted for use with a 30A or 20A supply circuit. Both of these units can be purchased with the NEMA-6-50 plug or hardwired, but the iEVSE Plus must be hardwired. We recommend hiring an experienced electrician for installation.
