Type 2 Cable Ratings

IEC 62196 / Type 2 To Type 2 / V1 Ratings

Type 2 EV Charging Cable Ratings For Commercial Charging Systems

Match current, voltage, phase, and rated power before you specify an ev charging cable for a fleet, charging site, or OEM program. This type 2 charging cable family covers 3.5kW, 7kW, 11kW, and 22kW configurations with regular 5M, 7M, and 10M lengths.

Type 2 to Type 2 | 16A / 32A | Single-phase / three-phase | 3.5kW–22kW

Rating Map

Read the four V1 versions as complete electrical configurations

The power label belongs with the current, voltage, and phase arrangement. A higher number on the cable does not independently set the charging result at the vehicle or site.

Model Phase Current Voltage Rated power
V1-16S 1 phase 16A AC 250V 3.5kW
V1-32S 1 phase 32A AC 250V 7kW
V1-16T 3 phase 16A AC 480V 11kW
V1-32T 3 phase 32A AC 480V 22kW

System Boundary

Keep cable capacity separate from the complete charging result

A clear technical brief becomes easier to review when each part of the charging arrangement keeps its own responsibility.

Cable rating

Describes the stated power, current, voltage, phase, and model configuration for the cable version.

Vehicle acceptance

The vehicle's onboard charging system may accept less power than the cable rating.

Site conditions

EVSE settings, available phases, protective equipment, installation capacity, and local requirements affect the final result.

Protection And Test Structure

Built around the parts that face handling and weather

The V1 cable uses a TPU jacket, an attached silicone dust-proof cap, and an integrated external mold. The product page lists IP65 protection and a broad testing program for electrical, mechanical, environmental, and connector-related checks.

TPU jacket

Provides the stated outer-jacket protection for the cable assembly.

Silicone dust cap

Helps reduce contamination at the connector tail when the cable is not connected.

Electrical checks

Includes impedance, high-voltage, open/short, CC/CP, leakage, grounding, and temperature-rise testing references.

Mechanical and climate checks

Includes run-over, plug, tension, bending, salt-spray, aging, and temperature/humidity test references.

Deployment And Customization

Specify the cable around the way your charging program works

Regular lengths cover common installations, while the product page also opens a path for commercial and OEM teams that need a more tailored cable brief.

Regular lengths

5M, 7M, and 10M are the listed standard length options.

Branding options

Custom colors and logo printing are available for brand and program requirements.

Fleet operations

Use the rating family to keep cable selection aligned with vehicle groups and site supply.

Commercial stations

Consider cable length, weather exposure, connector handling, and the charging equipment together.

Technical Reading

Three practical questions to settle before a cable brief

Read three technical notes to keep product definition, rating language, and compliance wording within their proper boundaries.

Article 01

CE, TUV, RoHS, REACH, and CB claims

Separate certificate references from certificate scope, test reports, market approvals, and other documents that may be needed for a specific program.

Read the compliance wording article
Article 02

What a Type 2-to-Type 2 IEC 62196 cable means

Keep the cable category distinct from a portable charger, adapter, wallbox, or complete charging station when writing technical content.

Read the product-definition article
Article 03

How 3.5kW to 22kW ratings relate

Read current, voltage, phase, and rated power together instead of treating the largest number as the actual vehicle charging result.

FAQ

Six checks for a Type 2-to-Type 2 cable specification

What is the V1 Type 2-to-Type 2 cable?

It is an IEC 62196 Type 2 cable assembly with Type 2 connection context at both ends. It is one component of a compatible EV charging arrangement, not a complete charging station.

Which V1 power configurations are available?

The listed versions are V1-16S at 3.5kW, V1-32S at 7kW, V1-16T at 11kW, and V1-32T at 22kW.

Why do the same current values appear with different power ratings?

The phase arrangement changes the relationship between current and rated power. The listed 16A and 32A versions include both single-phase and three-phase configurations.

What lengths and customization options are listed?

Regular lengths are 5M, 7M, and 10M. Custom length, color, and logo printing options are also available for the product program.

What protection features are named?

The product information names a TPU jacket, an attached silicone dust-proof cap, integrated external molding, and an IP65 protection rank.

Does a 22kW cable guarantee 22kW charging for every vehicle?

No. The cable rating describes the selected cable configuration. Vehicle onboard charging capacity, EVSE limits, available phases, site supply, protective equipment, and local requirements can reduce the actual result.
