NEMA 5-15 (120V outlet)
5-15 outletstandard wall outlet120V outlet
The standard 120-volt household outlet. Plugging in here is Level 1 charging — slow (roughly 3–5 miles of range per hour) but requires no installation. Every EV comes with a mobile connector that works with a 5-15 outlet.

Fine for plug-in hybrids and low-mileage days; too slow as a primary source for most full EVs.
