A smart junction box for an improved EV charging system is disclosed. The improved EV charging system includes the smart junction box, an EV smart breaker (EVSB), and one or more standard junction boxes. The smart junction box comprises multiple switches and communication capability, and is structured to simultaneously be connected to the EVSB, an EV charging connector, and the standard junction boxes. Each standard junction box can also be connected to an EV charging connector. For an EVSB that can only directly connect to one load at a time, connecting the smart junction box to the EVSB enables multiple vehicles to be connected to the charging system at one time. The smart junction box’s switches switch the electrical connections between the EVSB and each of the smart and standard junction boxes to enable consecutive charging of individual vehicles, so that all vehicles can be charged without requiring manual intervention.
A smart junction box for use in an EV charging system, the smart junction box comprising:
An EV charging system, the EV charging system comprising:
