UK - London - Electricity car recharge

A power cable plugs into the place of a petrol cap while recharging an electronic Daimler-Chrysler-made Smart car. The car is parked at the kefrbside of Southampton Street near London's Covent Garden and is hooked up to a recharging point. A charging station, also called electric recharging point, charging point and EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) supplies electricity for the recharging of electric vehicles (including plug-in hybrids). Although most electric cars can be recharged from a domestic wall socket, many support faster charging at higher voltages and currents that require dedicated equipment with a specialized connector.
