Product Advantages

 

International Standard Compatibility

  • Compliant with the IEC 62196-2 international standard (Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3 connectors), ensuring global compatibility with mainstream electric vehicles and charging stations.
  • The 16A rated current is suitable for home slow charging and some commercial AC charging scenarios, making it widely compatible with electric vehicles.

 

High-Safety Design

  • A built-in temperature sensor and overcurrent protection prevent overheating or electrical failure.
  • The flame-retardant casing (typically UL94 V-0 rated material) withstands high temperatures and flames, ensuring long-term stable operation.
  • Waterproof and dustproof (commonly IP54-IP55) ensures safe outdoor use in rainy and snowy environments.

 

High Durability

  • Contacts are primarily made of silver- or nickel-plated copper alloy, ensuring low contact resistance, high conductivity, and corrosion resistance.
  • The long plug-in/plug-out life (typically over 10,000 cycles) makes it suitable for frequent use.
