electric charging

Powering up devices

Electric charging is the process of replenishing a battery's stored energy by connecting it to an electrical power source.

Most commonly refers to recharging electric vehicles, phones, and other battery-powered devices: I need to find an electric charging station before we leave town.

The term distinguishes electrical refueling from gasoline or other fuel types.
