Power Innovations International (Pii) is a global provider of power management systems and services. Founded in the US in 1997, Pii became a subsidiary of LITEON in 2014. The company’s EVDC line of DC fast chargers can accept a wide range of input voltages—a feature that addresses a major bottleneck for DC charger installations.

Now Pii has announced that its EVDC lineup is officially cETLus listed, meaning that the chargers have been certified to meet North American electrical and safety standards set by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and the Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
The EVDC line was evaluated for safety by Intertek, ensuring that the products conform with UL standards 2202, 2231-1 and 2231-2; and CSA standards C22.2 No. 281.1, 281.2 and 346.
Pii’s EVDC chargers are designed to provide ease of installation and maximum power input flexibility. The EVDC line features a direct DC voltage input, making the units suitable for DC-coupled microgrids and DC power distribution systems.
“The EVDC line represents a major step forward in how we approach site-specific charging needs,” said Nick Stone, Pii’s Director of Product. “With a DC voltage input added to our listing, we’re making it easier than ever for our customers to deploy reliable [DC fast charging] infrastructure in an expanded set of applications without the typical installation hurdles.”
“Achieving this listing for our EVDC line reinforces our mission to provide the most flexible charging solutions on the market,” said Pii President Gary Straker. “By meeting these rigorous North American safety standards, we are giving our customers the confidence that they are investing in a product that doesn’t compromise on safety or performance.”
