Changing Gen 2/3 Tesla Mobile Connector Adapters for Level 1 and Level 2 Charging

If you use a Gen 2 Tesla Mobile Connector, you can easily change the interchangeable connector to match the outlet you need. This allows you to switch between standard household charging, higher-power Level 2 charging, and RV or travel trailer outlets without replacing the entire mobile connector.

How Do You Change a Gen 2 Tesla Mobile Connector?

The Gen 2 Tesla Mobile Connector is designed with a removable connector that can be swapped without special tools, buttons, or complicated steps. The connector may require a firm pull to remove, but once it is disconnected, another compatible adapter can be installed by simply pushing it into place.

The standard household connector typically uses a 125-volt outlet and is limited to 12 amps, making it a Level 1 charging option. For faster charging, you can replace it with a NEMA 14-50 connector, which provides Level 2 charging at a higher amperage. AC WORKS® offers Mobile Connector adapters with 24-amp and 32-amp chips, depending on the charging setup.

Using a Gen 2 Tesla Connector at an RV or Travel Trailer Outlet

A Gen 2 Tesla Mobile Connector can also be adapted for use with a travel trailer or RV outlet. For example, a TT-30 adapter can connect to a 125-volt RV receptacle. While this remains Level 1 charging, the adapter can use a 24-amp chip, allowing more available charging current than the standard 12-amp household connector.

Changing the Connector Is Simple

To change the connector, firmly pull the existing adapter straight out of the Tesla Mobile Connector. Then align the replacement adapter and push it into the connector until it is securely seated. No special tool or button sequence is required.

This interchangeable design makes the Gen 2 Tesla Mobile Connector more versatile for home charging, Level 2 charging, camping, RV travel, and other charging situations.

Important: Always verify that the outlet, wiring, adapter, and charging current are properly rated for the intended application before charging your EV.
