Portuguese EV charging company i-charging has cleared a key hurdle for bringing its 1.5-megawatt (MW) electric truck charger to the US and Canada.
The company’s i-light heavy-duty charger has received Intertek’s ETL certification, confirming compliance with electrical safety standards for DC fast charging equipment in both countries. That includes UL 2202 and UL 2231 in the US and CSA C22.2 No. 346 in Canada.
The certification gives fleet operators and site developers the independent safety validation they need before installing the equipment. Local permits and inspections will still, of course, apply.
The i-light is designed for medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicles and can be configured with both Combined Charging System (CCS) and Megawatt Charging System (MCS) outputs. Its CCS connector delivers up to 800 kW, with either a 600-amp continuous-cooled cable or an optional 700-amp continuous-cooled cable (800-amp peak). That makes it compatible with electric trucks already on North American roads.
