Patent attributes
An electric vehicle (EV) charging system includes a number of output connections (e.g., cables). Each of the output connections is connected to at least one head, and each head can be connected concurrently to an EV. A charging current is directed to a first one of the output connections if a first EV is connected to a head connected to the first one of the output connections. Then, the charging current to the first one of the output connections can be stopped, switched to a second one of the output connections, and restarted if a second EV is connected to a head connected to the second one of the output connections. A graphical user interface (GUI) is rendered on the display of a computer system. The GUI includes elements that indicate which output connection of the charging station is receiving a charging current.
