Nissan LEAF 2023 Owners Manual
4.3.2. Normal charge
There are three methods of normal charging:
With normal charging station with cable
With NISSAN Mode 3 cable (where fitted)
With NISSAN EVSE (where fitted)
A NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer can advise regarding availability of this cable in your country.
NISSAN highly recommends an EN61851-compliant normal charging station installed on a dedicated 220-240 V circuit in your home by a licensed professional electrician, certified by a NISSAN-recommended Electro-Mobility Operator (EMO). NISSAN has contracted EMOs to assist you in purchasing and installing these charging stations, which are easy to use and provide AC power to your NISSAN LEAF for charging the battery. Another advantage is that it is possible to fully charge your LEAF overnight whilst using the cabin pre-heating or pre-cooling function. Your normal charging station will either have a cable attached, or requires the use of a NISSAN Mode 3 cable. Either way, you must connect the normal charge connector to the charge port on the right hand side.
