Conversions Tech SAE J1772 Type-1 EV Charging Plug — 16 A, NEMA 5-15P, Industrial-Grade Contacts
The Conversions Tech J1772 Type-1 EV charging plug delivers reliable Level-1 charging for North American EVs and PHEVs. Built around phosphor-bronze power contacts with silver plating, a flame-retardant thermoplastic housing (UL94 V-0 class material), and a rugged strain-relieved cable, this assembly is engineered for safety, longevity, and low insertion loss. LED indicators support quick diagnostics during start-up and charging.
Key Engineering Advantages
- Standards-Compliant: SAE J1772 Type-1 interface for broad compatibility across EV/PHEV models (North America).
- Contact System: Phosphor-bronze pins with silver-plated surfaces for reduced contact resistance and improved thermal performance.
- Dielectric Safety: Insulation resistance > 1000 MΩ @ 500 V DC; withstand voltage up to 2000 V.
- Housing & Cable: Flame-retardant thermoplastic (UL94 V-0 class material) with robust over-mold and strain relief; outdoor-ready jacket.
- User Feedback: Multi-state LED indicator assists with power, charging, and fault conditions.
- Form Factor: Default NEMA 5-15P input plug for Level-1 convenience; typical 21 ft cable reaches most driveways.

Usage & Safety Notes
- Connect to a dedicated, properly grounded 120 V circuit for best performance (Level-1).
- Inspect the connector and cable before each use; stop if damage or overheating is observed.
- Keep connectors dry; do not immerse. Store coiled and out of direct sunlight when not in use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will this work with my EV?
Yes, if your vehicle uses the SAE J1772 Type-1 inlet (standard on most North American EVs/PHEVs). Tesla vehicles require the common J1772-to-Tesla adapter.
2) Is this Level-1 or Level-2?
With the included NEMA 5-15P (120 V) input, this is a Level-1 solution (16 A max). For Level-2 (220–240 V), you must use the correct receptacle/circuit and a compatible plug/adapter rated for the higher voltage and current.
3) What charge rates should I expect at 120 V, 16 A?
Roughly 1.6–1.9 kW (device and line-voltage dependent). Typical overnight gains are suitable for daily commuting and top-offs.
4) Can I use an extension cord?
Not recommended. If absolutely necessary, use a heavy-gauge outdoor-rated cord sized for 16 A continuous loads and minimize length to reduce voltage drop and heat. Always keep connections dry.
5) What do the LED indicators mean?
Power-on, charging, and fault states are displayed. A fault indication can be caused by poor grounding, over-temperature, or line anomalies. Disconnect and inspect if a fault persists.
6) Is the plug weather-resistant?
The housing and cable are outdoor-capable, but avoid immersion and keep connectors clean/dry. Store indoors when not in use.
7) What materials are used for the contacts and shell?
Contacts are phosphor-bronze with silver plating for low resistance and better thermal margins. The shell is flame-retardant thermoplastic (UL94 V-0 class material).
8) Does it support smart features or Wi-Fi?
No. This is a straightforward, robust charging interface with LED status—no Wi-Fi or app pairing to go wrong.
9) Can I customize cable length?
Yes. Standard lead is ~21 ft. Contact sales@conversionstech.com for custom lengths and connector options.
10) What breakers/outlets should I use?
For Level-1 with NEMA 5-15P, use a properly grounded 15 A branch circuit. For any Level-2 setup, consult a licensed electrician and use the correct 220–240 V receptacle and breaker per local code.
