Ubuhlekisa Bama-Block Heater Outlets

Khetha noma iyiphi indawo yokupaka e-Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Minnesota, North Dakota, Quebec, Alaska, Norway, Sweden, noma Finland uzobona okuthile ongakuboni kwezinye izingxenye ezishisayo zomhlaba: ama-electrical outlets ezindongeni phakathi kwezindawo zokupaka. (Asiphakamisi ukuthi uvakashele zonke. Kodwa hlonipha uma wenza njalo.) Lawa ma-outlets afakwe khona ngenhloso eyodwa: ama-block heaters.

Lapho izinga lokushisa ebusika lehla lifinyelele ku -30°C (-22°F), uwoyela enjini kaphethiloli (ikakhulukazi ezindala ezingekho nezobuchwepheshe besimanje sokuqala ebusika) uba mncane kakhulu kuze kube yilapho imoto ingasakwazi ukuqala. I-block heater igcina injini ishisa ubusuku bonke ukuze imoto iqale kahle ekuseni. Iminyaka eminingi, lokhu kwakuyingxenye nje yokuphila ezindaweni ezibandayo. Uxhuma imoto yakho ebusuku, hhayi ukuyishaja, kodwa ukuyigcina ishisa.

Nansi ubuhlekisa: leyo ndlela ye-outlet, eyakhiwe ngokuphelele ukusekela izimoto ezisebenza ngophethiloli, manje isiyinzuzo enkulu yezindawo ezibandayo ekwamukelweni kwe-EV.

I-outlet ejwayelekile engu-120V iyona kuphela edingekayo esakhiweni ukuze inikeze ukushaja kwe-Level 1 kwe-EV. Abashayeli baletha ikhebula labo lokushaja, elivame ukufakwa emotweni, bese bexhuma ukuze kushajwe kancane kancane okungenisa amandla ebhethri ngesikhathi imoto imile ekhaya ebusuku noma emsebenzini phakathi nosuku.

Kubashayeli abaningi abahamba nsuku zonke ngaphansi kuka-100km (60 miles), isikhathi eside sokushaja nge-Level 1 siyanele konke abakudingayo ngosuku olujwayelekile. Ezinsukwini ezibandayo kakhulu, isimo sezulu esibandayo singanciphisa ibanga lebhethri ngo-30% noma ngaphezulu, ngakho-ke ukushaja okusheshayo kwe-DC esidlangalaleni kwesinye isikhathi kuyasiza ezinhlelweni ezide noma lapho izinga lokushisa lehla kakhulu. Lezi zibalo azilona lonke. Ibanga langempela nesivinini sokushaja kuyahlukahluka ngokwemodeli yemoto, indlela yokushayela, indawo, nezimo. Okuhlangenwe nakho kwakho kungahluka, kodwa kuyiqiniso kubashayeli abaningi nsuku zonke.

Abantu ezindaweni ezibandayo sebeyijwayele indlela yokuxhuma izimoto zabo ebusuku. Le ndlela idluliselwa ngokwemvelo ekubeni ngabanikazi be-EV ngendlela engaveli kwezinye izindawo lapho ukuxhuma imoto kuyinto engajwayelekile. Ngokuhlanganiswa kwale ndlela ye-outlet esivele ikhona, lokhu kunikeza izindawo ezibandayo ukuqala okuqinile.

Kubanikazi be-EV ezindaweni ezibandayo, ikakhulukazi kulabo abahlala ema-apartment, ema-condo, nasezakhiweni ezindala, bavame ukuqala ukushaja ngokushesha ngaphandle kokulinda ukufakwa kwezinsiza ezintsha ezibizayo. I-outlet isivele ikhona.

Indlela yokubalwa kukagesi yayihlukahlukene: kwesinye isikhathi kwakufakwa enanini lokupaka, kwesinye isikhathi inkokhelo eqondile phakathi nezinyanga zasebusika, kwesinye isikhathi ixhunywe ngqo kumitha yomuntu ngamunye. Ukuxhuma ngqo kumitha yomuntu kuyisixazululo esihle sokushaja i-EV. Umhlali ukhokha ngokunembile ngokusebenzisa kwakhe ngokusebenzisa ibhili likagesi lakhe. Kodwa akusikho zonke izakhiwo ezinezinhlelo ezinjalo, futhi ukulungisa lokhu akuhlali kuyinto elula.

Ezindlini ezinganazo izinhlelo zokumitha ngqo, izindlela ezindala zokukhokha ezihlanganisa inkokhelo eqondile noma efakiwe ekupakeni azisebenzi kahle ekushajeni kwe-EV okulinganayo unyaka wonke. Ama-block heaters ayesetshenziswa ngezikhathi ezithile kuphela ngesikhathi sezikhathi ezibandayo kakhulu, kanti ukushaja kwe-EV kwenzeka kaningi kakhulu. Izindleko zikagesi zihluke kakhulu. I-EVnSteven, uhlelo lokusebenza lokushaja i-EV ema-apartment nase-condo, linikeza abaphathi bezakhiwo lokhu: ukulandelela ukusetshenziswa ngehora nokukhokhisa izakhamizi njalo ngenyanga, ngaphandle kwesidingo sezinsiza ezintsha.

Ngakho-ke bonga abanikazi bezimoto zikaphethiloli abakhe zonke lezi zinsiza. Yebo, abanye bangahle bahlekise ngokuthi ama-EV adinga ukuxhunywa ebusuku bonke. Kodwa noma ubani osebenzisa i-block heater uyazi ukuthi benza okufanayo iminyaka eminingi. Futhi kulezi zinsuku, bakhokha intengo ephakeme njalo lapho begcwalisa uphethiloli.

Uma uphatha isakhiwo esinezindawo zokuxhuma ze-120V endaweni yokupaka, i-EVnSteven ingakusiza ukuthi uzisebenzise ukushaja ama-EV namuhla.
