About this deal

Available with a range of cable lengths, 5m, 10m, or 15m, you can be sure you will be able to reach EV charging units, no matter how awkwardly they are positioned. Our Type 2 charging cables are compatible with a wide range of electric vehicles. We have compiled a list of compatible Type 2 vehicles, including but not limited to Audi, BMW, Chevrolet, Citroen, DS, Ford, Fiat, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar, KIA, Land Rover, LDV, LEVC, Lexus, Lucid, Mercedes, MG, Mini, Nissan, Peugeot, Polestar, Porsche, Renault, SEAT, Skoda, Smart, Tesla, Toyota, Vauxhall, Volkswagen & Volvo. This means that regardless of the make and model of your electric vehicle, our charging cables will work seamlessly with your vehicle.

The IEC 62196 Type 2 connector (often referred to as Mennekes for the company that designed it) is used for charging electric vehicles, mainly within Europe, as it was declared standard by the EU. Based on widespread red IEC 60309 three phase plugs with five pins, which come in different diameters according to maximum current (most common are 16 A and 32 A), a single size was selected, as maximum possible power will be communicated to the car via two additional communication pins and by a simple resistor coding within the cable. The onboard charger inside the car has to limit the current accordingly. Don't settle for limited options! Our cutting-edge Type 2 EV charging cables are designed to seamlessly connect with ALL Type 2 EV's, ensuring hassle-free charging experiences for all EV owners. Our Type 2 cables support different charging options, accommodating speeds of up to 22kW, whether you're seeking a reliable solution for home charging or require a cable suitable for on-the-go charging. Some vehicle inlets may contain the extra connections to allow the CCS DC-only charger (high-current DC) to be inserted. [17]The easiest part of the EV charging procedure is locating a compatible unit that can replenish your battery. Like everything else, there’s an app for that. Communication takes place over the CP/PP signalling pins between the charger, cable, and vehicle to ensure that the highest common denominator of voltage and current is selected. Plug the other end of the extension cord into a suitable outlet, making sure the outlet is properly grounded and capable of handling the power requirements of the EV.

Getting to know how your EV charges is important, so you don’t get caught out when on a journey. Once you have determined which electric car charger type you have, you can use this information to your advantage to find faster and more convenient ways to ‘refuel’. The Type 2 connector system was originally proposed by Mennekes in 2009. The system was later tested and standardised by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) as VDE-AR-E 2623-2-2, and subsequently recommended by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) in 2011. In January 2013, the IEC 62196 Type 2 connector was selected by the European Commission as official AC charging plug within the European Union. [4] It has since been adopted as the recommended connector in most countries worldwide, including New Zealand. [5] When passing AC, the maximum power of the Mennekes connector is 43kW. [6] The IEC 62196 Type 1 connector (codified under SAE J1772) is the corresponding standard for single-phase AC charging in the United States, Canada, and South Korea. [7] J1772 has a maximum output of 19.2kW. [8]With that in mind, charging cables are optimised to facilitate both single-phase and three-phase charging, but it’s worth being aware of which type of power you’re plugged in to so proper charging time expectations can be set.
