I charge the Switch console just fine with a PD USB-C charger. PD is very negotiable and the Switch only supports a few voltages so your charger must support the same voltages.

As far as I understand it (correct me if I'm wrong), every proper charger is supposed to support the exact same list of power combinations from 0 up to whatever its max wattage is.

The switch dock demands 39 watts, which implies 15 volts, but the switch itself will negotiate any voltage when standalone.
