Type 2 to Type 2 32A (7.2kW) Mode 3 EV/Electric Vehicle Charging Cable | 5 Metre

Product Information

The length of the cable is important as it will need to be long enough to connect the car to the charging source, be it a 3-pin plug or a Type 2 charger, without trailing across the floor or remaining coiled – both of which can be dangerous. Type GB/T 20234.3 defines how rapid DC charging works. There is just one nationwide DC charging system in China, rather than competing systems like CHAdeMO, CCS, Tesla-modified, etc., found in other countries. 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. Rapid chargers typically have two cables providing the most popular rapid charge connectors (CCS and CHAdeMO). You simply select and use the plug that fits your EV.

We believe in the quality of our products to the extent that we will replace your cable and recycle your old in the event of failure.

When will you need a separate charging cable?

It’s also possible to buy EV charging cables with brightly coloured leads, which could be useful if you’re using it across a walkway or in a dimly lit location. Which EV charging cable do I need?

Public chargers can be divided into 2 categories, AC and DC chargers. DC chargers are Level-3 fast chargers and always come with cables attached to them. These can charge up to 250kW and above and therefore have all the equipment required to blast at such high speeds. Connection set for conductive charging of electric vehicles—Part 2: AC charging coupler] (unofficial English translation) (Report). EuropElectro. 22 December 2011. pp.1–24 . Retrieved 13 December 2017. While you will generally get a lot of use out of a charging cable, in some situations it won’t be required because the chargepoint will already have a cable attached.

How do I choose a charging cable?

From 2030, sales of new petrol and diesel cars will be banned in the UK. As this date approaches, many of us will get accustomed to EVs and all the electric car connector types. Until then, familiarising yourself with this guide will give you a handy head-start. An ever-growing number of our patrol vans have built-in emergency mobile charging systems capable of giving an out-of-charge electric car enough power to be driven a short distance home, or to a charge point. Our All-Wheels-Up recovery system also allows our patrols to safely rescue electric cars with no need for a flatbed. If you buy a higher-rated EV Charging Cable (Type 2) – for example, a 32amp fast or rapid/ ultrafast charger – this cable will be compatible with any lower power-rated charger, up to 32amp. The allocation of the four normal power supply pins vary depending on the mode of operation. They are allocated as:

In the UK, a Type 2 charging point on a single-phase electricity supply at home allows you to charge your car at a maximum of 7.4 kW. The formula is: 230 volts x 32 amps = 7,360 Watts, or 7.36 kW, then rounded to 7.4 kW.

10m EV Charging Cables

If you want the best all-round cable at a reasonable price, we recommend the 5 metre 22kW cable from EVSE. With a 2 year warranty and 22kW charging speed, it is one of the most popular cables on the market. It is important to match up the charger and cable types to ensure that the EV charger can recharge at the advertised capacity so that your car can recharge at the optimum speed.

Tethered and untethered cables For example, in Europe, you will often come across the ‘CCS Combo 2’ connector (see picture) which has the Type 2 AC connector at the top and the CCS DC connector at the bottom.
