What goes with ev charger
Extension Cord
Verdict:
NO
No. Do not put a household, garage, RV, or appliance extension cord between the outlet and an EV charger, for either Level 1 or Level 2 charging. Do not add a J1772 or NACS extension on the vehicle side unless the charger and vehicle manufacturers expressly approve that exact accessory; some charger manuals prohibit these extensions. Use an outlet or safety-certified EVSE whose factory cable reaches the car.
