A Faster Home Charge, Managed From Your Phone

The Type 2 home charger is built for households that want more than an overnight trickle. The 7.4 kW single-phase version charges a typical Indian EV in about four hours on the supply most homes already have; the 22 kW three-phase version suits homes with a three-phase connection and a car that can accept the higher rate. Both carry the Type 2 (IEC 62196) connector, an IP55 outdoor-rated enclosure, and WiFi.

Built-in Class 1 energy meter, designed by Tech OVN's own metering team — the same engineers behind our revenue-grade Class 0.5S utility smart meters. Every kilowatt-hour you charge is measured, not estimated, which is what makes the companion app's cost tracking trustworthy.

The Companion Home App

Every home charger pairs with the Tech OVN home app — a consumer companion designed for a single household, not a commercial operator. Schedule charging for the cheapest hours, watch the cost as it runs, and keep control of who uses the charger. These are the capabilities the app is built around.

Schedule off-peak charging

Set the charger to run during cheaper night-time or off-peak tariff hours automatically, so your EV is full by morning at the lowest cost.

Solar-surplus charging

For homes with rooftop solar, charge preferentially from surplus generation instead of drawing from the grid.

Start & stop remotely

Begin or pause a charging session from your phone — no need to walk to the charger in the parking or basement.

Live power & session cost

Watch real-time power draw and a running rupee cost for the session as it charges, based on your tariff.

Monthly cost & history reports

See how much energy and money each month's charging used, with a full session-by-session history from the built-in meter.

Charge & cost limits

Cap a session by energy, by cost, or by target state of charge so you never over-charge or overspend.

Push notifications

Get alerts when charging starts, completes, is interrupted, or when a fault needs attention.

Driver & vehicle profiles

Keep separate profiles for multiple EVs or family members, each with its own schedule, limits and history.

Household access control

Decide who in the household can start the charger, so a shared basement point isn't used by others.

The home app is the charger's companion app and is separate from our commercial charging management system (CSMS), which is for charge point operators running a network. App features are being rolled out with the product.

Charging Time by EV Model

Approximate full-charge time on the 7.4 kW single-phase home charger, assuming a flat battery. In normal daily use most owners top up for an hour or two rather than draining to empty.

ParameterSpecification
MG Comet EV17.3 kWh battery — approx. 2.5 hours to full
Tata Tigor EV26 kWh battery — approx. 3.5 – 4 hours to full

2-wheeler / 3-wheeler EVsRate limited by the vehicle's onboard charger (typically 0.75–1 kW); ~4–6 hours to full

Times are based on the vehicle's usable battery capacity divided by the effective AC charge rate. Actual times vary with ambient temperature, battery state-of-health, and the vehicle's onboard charger limit — some EVs cap single-phase AC charging below 7.4 kW, in which case they charge at their own maximum rate.

How to Install a Type 2 Home Charger in India

Four steps from blank wall to first charge. The 7.4 kW version runs on single-phase; the 22 kW version needs a three-phase supply.

1. Confirm your supply and load

A 7.4 kW charger draws ~32A at 230V on a single-phase supply. Check your sanctioned load with an electrician — most Indian homes can support 7.4 kW. The 22 kW variant needs a three-phase supply, so confirm you have three-phase service before choosing it.

2. Run a dedicated circuit

For 7.4 kW single-phase: a dedicated 40A MCB on 6 mm² wire from the meter to the parking spot, protected by an RCBO / Type-A RCD. For 22 kW three-phase, the electrician sizes a three-phase breaker and cable to match.

3. Get building / RWA approval

For apartments and shared parking, submit a written request to the RWA with the electrician's load certificate. Individual covered parking usually needs only a no-objection note.

4. Mount, connect & pair the app

Wall-mount the charger near the parking, terminate the supply, connect WiFi, and pair it with the companion home app to set schedules, limits and driver profiles. A clean install is a single half-day visit.

Single Socket 3.3 kW, Type 2 7.4 kW, or Type 2 22 kW?

All three carry a built-in Class 1 meter and pair with the home app. The difference is charging speed and the electrical supply each one needs. For most homes, the 7.4 kW Type 2 is the sweet spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about the Type 2 home charger and its companion app.

For most Indian homes, 7.4 kW is the right choice — it charges a typical 30 kWh EV in about 4 hours and runs on a single-phase supply. Choose 22 kW only if you have a three-phase connection and an EV whose onboard charger can accept a higher three-phase AC rate; many cars cap AC charging below 22 kW, so the extra headroom is only useful for vehicles that support it.
The 7.4 kW variant runs on a standard single-phase 230V supply at 32 A — the same supply most homes already have. The 22 kW variant needs a three-phase 415V supply. If you are unsure which you have, check your electricity meter or ask your electrician; upgrading from single-phase to three-phase involves your DISCOM and is only worth it if your EV can use the higher rate.
Yes — the charger is paired with the Tech OVN companion home app. It lets you schedule charging for off-peak or solar-surplus hours, start and stop remotely, watch live power and session cost, see monthly cost and charging history, set charge or cost limits, get push notifications, keep separate driver/vehicle profiles, and control who in the household can use the charger. The app is the companion app for this residential charger — designed for a single household rather than a commercial operator.
No. The CSMS is our platform for commercial charge point operators managing a network of public or workplace chargers — pricing, roaming, operator billing and fleet oversight. The home app is a separate consumer companion app for a single household's charger. The charger does support OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1, so if you later move it onto a commercial CSMS or CPO platform, it can connect there too.
A dedicated 40A MCB on 6 mm² wire from your meter to the parking spot, protected by an RCBO or Type-A RCD on the dedicated line. A 7.4 kW charger draws about 32 A at 230V — most Indian homes have spare capacity within their sanctioned single-phase load. Always use a licensed electrician for the dedicated circuit to comply with IS 732 wiring rules and keep the warranty valid.
Both. A tethered version has the Type 2 cable permanently attached to the charger — plug straight into the car with nothing to carry. A socket version has a Type 2 outlet on the charger and you use your own Type 2 cable, which keeps the cable tidy and lets different cars bring their own lead. The configuration is selected at the time of order.
Yes — the charger has a built-in Class 1 energy meter designed by Tech OVN's own metering team, the same engineers behind our revenue-grade utility smart meters. The app uses this meter for its live session cost, monthly reports and history, so the numbers reflect actual measured energy rather than an estimate.
Yes, OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1 are supported. For home use the charger is app-first and does not need an operator behind it, but the OCPP support means the same unit can be connected to a commercial CSMS or CPO platform later if your needs change.
Standard manufacturer warranty applies (see the datasheet for the current term). Optional extended warranty is available — talk to us for details.
