I'm considering buying an electric vehicle and I'm curious about the public charging infrastructure. Specifically, I want to know if public EV chargers are tethered, meaning do they have a cable permanently attached, or are they untethered, requiring the user to bring their own charging cable? Are public EV chargers tethered?
