Connector Standards

CCS2, CHAdeMO, GB/T — Which Standard for Hyderabad?

CCS2
India BIS Standard ✓

Used by: Tata Nexon EV (2023+), Tata Punch EV, Hyundai Creta EV, Mahindra XEV, Kia EV6, BMW iX, all new launches. Install CCS2 as primary.

CHAdeMO
Legacy Support

Used by: MG ZS EV (2019–2022 models), Nissan Leaf. Add as secondary gun on dual-standard units for backward compatibility.

GB/T
Chinese Standard

Used by: BYD Atto 3, Ora Good Cat (some variants). Not India BIS mandated but increasingly requested for BYD owners. Optional add-on.

Solar Cubic recommendation: Install dual-standard (CCS2 + CHAdeMO) chargers for any public-facing installation in Hyderabad in 2025. BIS has mandated CCS2 for new EVs, but CHAdeMO legacy vehicles will be on roads for 8–10 years.

FAQ

DC Fast Charging — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a DC fast charging station installation cost in Hyderabad?
A single 30kW DC fast charger installation costs ₹5–9 lakhs including unit, civil work, and CEIG inspection. A 60kW dual-gun charger costs ₹10–18 lakhs. A complete 3-charger public station (1 × 60kW + 2 × 30kW) ranges ₹25–40 lakhs. Prices vary by utility connection type, civil scope, and site conditions.
How fast does a DC fast charger charge an EV in Hyderabad?
With a 30kW charger: Tata Nexon EV LR = 60–70 minutes. With a 50kW charger: Nexon EV = 40–50 minutes; Hyundai Creta EV = 45 minutes. With a 150kW charger: Kia EV6 = 18 minutes (10–80%). Actual times depend on the EV's onboard DC acceptance rate.
Which DC fast charger connector standard is used in Hyderabad?
India has standardised on CCS2 (Combined Charging System Type 2) as the primary DC connector per BIS mandate. Most 2022+ EVs (Tata, Hyundai, Mahindra) use CCS2. Older MG ZS EV models use CHAdeMO. Solar Cubic installs dual-standard CCS2 + CHAdeMO chargers for public stations to ensure universal compatibility.
Can I install a DC fast charger station at my petrol station in Hyderabad?
Yes — fuel station EV conversion is a major growth area in Hyderabad. HPCL, BPCL, and IOC are actively adding EV bays at dealer stations. Independent owners can install DC chargers and list on Tata Power EZ Charge, Statiq, ChargeZone to monetise EV traffic. Solar Cubic handles all aspects from CEIG certification to OCPP network setup.
What are the electricity connection requirements for a DC fast charger in Hyderabad?
A 30kW charger needs 45–50 kVA supply from TSSPDCL. A 60kW charger needs 90–100 kVA. Multi-charger public stations often require an HT transformer connection. Solar Cubic handles the TSSPDCL demand application, transformer sizing, and CEIG inspection paperwork — all mandatory for commercial DC fast charging stations.
Is CEIG inspection required for DC fast charging stations in Hyderabad?
Yes — DC fast charging stations above 11kVA require CEIG (Chief Electrical Inspector, Govt. of Telangana) inspection and approval before commercial operation. Solar Cubic prepares all technical documentation, test certificates, and schedules the inspection. This is a mandatory step we handle end-to-end for every DC installation.
Can a DC fast charging station in Hyderabad be powered by solar energy?
Yes — a 50kW rooftop or ground-mount solar system generates 60–65 units/day in Hyderabad, offsetting 40–60% of a medium-traffic DC station's daily energy. Solar Cubic designs integrated solar + DC fast charging systems and handles TSSPDCL net metering — significantly improving your station's operating economics.
