Charge older Leaf with Lightning 240 volt EVSE?

[Cmahrle]

We have a 2013 Leaf and just got a Lightning, which comes with an EVSE that has adapters for plugging into 120- or 240-volt outlets. Before I fry anything, is it safe to charge this older Leaf with this EVSE in a 240-volt outlet? I don’t know why it wouldn’t be, but not sure if there’s some control that happens in a charging station that doesn’t happen in the EVSE.

yes, the onboard charger (either 3.3 or 6KW) will take only that from the EVSE supply.

edit:
another way to look at it is if it has a SAE J1772 plug it has to conform to the SAE protocol, which both vehicles use.

Thank you!
