To provide a charging device used for an electric vehicle and an operation method thereof.SOLUTION: A charging device used for an electric vehicle according to the present invention includes a power transmission path with one end coupled to an AC power source through a first connection port and the other end coupled to the electric vehicle through a second connection port, a switch placed on the power transmission path, a first controller coupled to the power transmission path and the switch, a second controller coupled to the first controller, and a communication unit coupled to the first controller and the second connection port. The second controller provides a first notification to the first controller if it receives a first request. The first controller communicates with the electric vehicle through the communication unit based on the first notification and controls the switch to be non-conductive. The first controller controls the switch to be conductive upon receiving a first electric vehicle notification provided by the electric vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】電動車両に用いられる充電装置及びその動作方法を提供する。【解決手段】本発明に係る電動車両に用いられる充電装置は、一端が第１接続ポートを介して交流電源に結合され、他端が第２接続ポートを介して電動車両に結合される電力伝送経路と、電力伝送経路上に配置されるスイッチと、電力伝送経路とスイッチとに結合される第１コントローラと、第１コントローラに結合される第２コントローラと、第１コントローラと第２接続ポートとに結合される通信ユニットと、を含み、第２コントローラは、第１の要求を受信した場合、第１コントローラに第１通知を提供し、第１コントローラは、第１通知に基づいて通信ユニットにより電動車両と通信するとともに、スイッチを非導通に制御し、第１コントローラは、電動車両によって提供される第１の電動車両通知を受信した場合、スイッチを導通に制御する。【選択図】図３
