China export standards for EV charger

Electric vehicle charging equipment—covering AC wall boxes, DC fast chargers, and pantograph systems—is subject to a patchwork of electrical safety, EMC, and interoperability requirements that vary substantially across export markets. From China, manufacturers must navigate connector-standard mandates (CCS2 in Europe, J1772/CCS1 in North America, CHAdeMO in Japan), grid-interaction rules that affect power factor and harmonic limits, and in some markets mandatory cybersecurity or smart-charging protocol tests. Certification bodies, mark-recognition schemes, and field-commissioning procedures differ by jurisdiction. The comparison pages below lay out the full requirements—applicable standards, mandatory tests, accepted marks, and filing procedures—for each market covered.
