Connectors
- CHAdeMO DC fast
- An older Japanese DC fast-charging standard. Effectively legacy in North America — the Nissan Leaf was its main user, and newer models have moved to CCS or NACS.
- J1772 AC
- The standard AC connector on North American EVs other than Tesla. Every non-Tesla EV sold in the US can use it directly, and Teslas can with the adapter that ships with the car.
- CCS (J1772 Combo) DC fast
- The DC fast-charging standard used by most non-Tesla EVs in North America. It adds two large DC pins below a normal J1772 socket, so one port on the car serves both.

About this record
Taken from the AFDC register, which covers publicly reported charging infrastructure across the United States. Home chargers and unreported private installations do not appear in it.
Port counts describe how the site is configured, not whether a given port is free right now. Check the operator's own app before setting out if you are relying on a specific charger.
