What is GBT Charging Standard?

The *GBT charging standard* refers to the *Chinese national standard* for electric vehicle (EV) charging. Officially known as GB/T, it covers the technical specifications for EV charging interfaces, communication protocols, and related safety aspects in China.

Here are the key aspects of the GB/T standard:
1. Charging Interface:
   - The GB/T standard defines the type and structure of the charging connector used in EVs in China. The design is unique to China and differs from the connectors used in Europe (such as CCS) or North America (like the Tesla or J1772 connectors).

2. Charging Power:
   - The GB/T standard supports both AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) charging. The AC chargers typically provide slower charging, while DC chargers offer fast charging capabilities.

3. Versions:
   - Over time, the GB/T standard has undergone revisions to improve safety and efficiency. The latest version, GB/T 20234, includes updates for faster charging speeds and improved communication between the vehicle and charging station.

4. Communication Protocol:
   - It includes protocols that govern communication between the EV and the charging station, ensuring compatibility and safety during the charging process.

5. Comparison with Other Standards:
   - GB/T is different from CCS (Combined Charging System) used in Europe and North America, and CHAdeMO used in Japan. These regions have their own connector types and protocols, making international EVs require adapters for cross-country compatibility.

Since the GB/T standard is mandated in China, all EVs sold there must support this standard for charging.
