You will probably want 30 amp or 32 amp rated and needs a 40 amp 240 volt circuit for power. You can go larger but will not be utilized by I-Pace. Smaller is rating is OK although it will extend the time to charge.Recommended home stations?
I apologize if this is a 'dumb' question; however given there is apparently a serious lack of fast chargers in my area, am I understanding you correctly that I can buy a 'portable' charger and just need to find a suitable 240V outlet to plug it into giving me a 'mobile' fast charging station?The i-Pace I saw in Newport Beach, Calif, had an included EVSE that would accept NEMA 14-50. So it's probably Level 2, or over 6kW charging.
I'd install a NEMA 14-50 outlet where you think you'll park. All kinds of L2 chargers are available with 14-50 plugs. I would not buy another hardwired EVSE. I have a Bosch, a Clipper Creek, and a Juicebox. Only my Juicebox is 14-50 (40a).
Then you can recharge at RV campgrounds that have hookups.
If it helps, this is from the Jaguar I-Pace manual.I know that a charge cable(s) comes with the I-Pace, but
does anyone know what specific cable/charger in included with the
vehicle? (US)
Is there any reason why the Juicebox wouldn't work as well as the ChargePoint?If it helps, this is from the Jaguar I-Pace manual.
“Make sure that the AC charging cable meets standard SAE J1772”

Myself, I originally purchased the Juicebox, but then when Jaguar came out with there recommendations I purchased the ChargePoint hard wired charger.
I wouldn’t think there would be an issue. Just wanted to stay compliant with the recommended charger by Jaguar.Is there any reason why the Juicebox wouldn't work as well as the ChargePoint?If it helps, this is from the Jaguar I-Pace manual.

Thank you. I am just learning about this EV 'stuff' as I had never considered purchasing one until I saw the I Pace. I live in the upper Midwest, the area of the country that has an extremely limited public charging network. Based on the recent comments in this thread, I'm thinking it would be beneficial to have a somewhat portable solution such as the JuiceBox?I wouldn’t think there would be an issue. Just wanted to stay compliant with the recommended charger by Jaguar.

We have currently have a NEMA 6-50 outlet we are using for the Audi supplied charger for the A3 e-tron (same as Porsche). NEMA 6-50 is what the portable Chargepoint charger uses (there is a hardwired version, too). The Jaguar supplied charger uses NEMA 14-50 (the same as Tesla, I am told). There is a 6-50 to 14-50 adapter that you can purchase from hardware store (HomeDepot) or from Amazon.I am trying to get an answer today in regards to a charger.
If you want a plug-in charger, ChargePoint uses a Nema 6-50 plug, while Juicebox is 14-50.
6-50 is 3 wires while 14-50 4 wires.
So it seems odd to supply a 14-50 compatible cable, while the dealer suggesting using a ChargePoint charger that uses a different plug-in standard. :|
