I am reading about the Electric Vehicle and their charging.

I went through this link - J1772, where the connector image is displayed.

The connector has a PE terminal.

Going through a lot of material and links, I read that the Protective Earth is connected to a earth rod on the charging station side.

  1. So, this earth rod will be connected to the metal case of the charging box also, right?
On the vehicle side, where does this Protective Earth get connected to? 2. Will this protective earth be connected to the Chassis of the car?

  1. Is the purpose of this PE just similar to the Earth for other general electrical appliances?
