Enphase EV Chargers | ChargerPro

As the Enphase ecosystem expands beyond solar and energy storage, the Enphase EV Charger has become a key component of the brand’s all-in-one clean energy platform. Designed for speed, simplicity, and seamless integration, the Enphase EV Charger is a versatile Level 2 charger that works with nearly all EV models sold in North America.

Whether you already have an Enphase solar system or are simply looking for a reliable, high-performance EV charger, this guide will break down everything you need to know—features, compatibility, power specs, installation requirements, and more.

What Is the Enphase EV Charger?

The Enphase EV Charger is a Level 2 residential charger that delivers up to 48 amps of power for fast, efficient charging at home. Formerly known as the ClipperCreek HCS series, the charger has been rebranded under the Enphase umbrella but retains its industry-proven design and performance. These chargers are built in the U.S. and are known for their durability, reliability, and ease of installation.

The Enphase charger supports a wide range of EV makes and models, including Tesla (with adapter), and offers a choice of hardwired or plug-in configurations. With rugged NEMA 4 enclosures, long cable lengths, and optional load-sharing features, the Enphase EV Charger is suitable for both indoor and outdoor setups.

Technical Specifications

Here’s a breakdown of the core technical features of the Enphase EV Charger:

Charging Speed: Up to 48 amps (11.5 kW)
Connector Type: SAE J1772 (compatible with all major EVs)
Cable Length: Standard 25 feet
Power Input: 208–240V
Installation: Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 plug-in options
Enclosure Rating: NEMA 4 (weather-resistant for outdoor use)
Certifications: UL listed, ENERGY STAR® certified
Wi-Fi / Smart Features: Basic models do not include app connectivity; higher-end SKUs with load management may integrate with Enphase IQ ecosystem

It’s worth noting that the Enphase charger doesn’t currently include an integrated app for remote control or usage tracking like some competitors (e.g., Wallbox or ChargePoint). However, its reliability, simplicity, and rugged build quality make it a favorite among installers and homeowners seeking a “set it and forget it” solution.

EV Compatibility

The Enphase EV Charger uses the standard J1772 connector, which is compatible with all major EVs sold in North America, including:

Nissan LEAF
Chevy Bolt EUV
Ford Mustang Mach-E
Volkswagen ID.4
Hyundai IONIQ 5 / 6
Kia EV6
Rivian R1T / R1S
Lucid Air
Tesla (with J1772 adapter)

For Tesla drivers, a J1772-to-Tesla adapter (included with all new Tesla vehicles) makes the Enphase charger fully usable. The unit works seamlessly with EVs that support AC Level 2 charging and is future-proofed to support upcoming models from all major automakers.

Charging Speed and Power Output

Charging performance will vary based on your vehicle’s onboard charging capability, but the Enphase EV Charger can deliver up to 11.5 kW of power when wired to a 60-amp circuit. This allows for:

Up to 44 miles of range per hour for EVs that can accept the full 48 amps
A full overnight charge (6–9 hours) for most long-range EVs
Adjustable amperage settings for lower-capacity circuits (e.g., 16A, 32A, 40A)

Whether you're topping up after your daily commute or charging from nearly empty, the Enphase charger offers dependable speed and power.

Installation and Setup

The Enphase EV Charger can be installed either as a hardwired unit or using a NEMA 14-50 plug for more flexible setups. Both configurations are designed for easy installation, but hardwiring is often preferred for maximizing amperage (48A vs. 40A via plug).

Highlights:

Compatible with single-phase 208–240V circuits
Can be installed indoors or outdoors
Uses a standard 2-pole 60-amp breaker for full output
Backed by Enphase’s growing network of certified installers

At ChargerPro, we provide professional installation services for both plug-in and hardwired setups, ensuring your charger meets all local code and utility requirements.

Durability and Design

Originally developed under ClipperCreek, the Enphase charger’s design prioritizes industrial-grade durability. The unit is housed in a NEMA 4-rated enclosure, which protects it from rain, snow, dust, and extreme temperatures. It’s a charger built to last in any climate, with the added peace of mind that it’s assembled and quality-tested in the United States.

The charger includes a 25-foot charging cable, which gives you ample reach whether you’re mounting in a garage, carport, or driveway wall. A cable holster and mounting bracket are included for clean, convenient storage when not in use.

Smart Energy Integration (Optional)

While the base Enphase EV Charger is a no-frills powerhouse, higher-end models can be integrated with the broader Enphase Energy System, including:

Enphase IQ Batteries
IQ8 Microinverters
Enphase App (via Envoy gateway)
Solar and EV load management

This makes the Enphase charger a particularly compelling option for solar-powered homes already using Enphase components. Load-sharing and energy optimization features allow users to maximize charging efficiency and minimize utility costs when paired with solar production and battery storage.

How Does It Compare?

Here’s how the Enphase EV Charger stacks up against similar models:

If you want a smart-integrated, solar-aware charger that’s built like a tank, the Enphase model is tough to beat—especially if you’re already invested in the brand’s energy ecosystem.
