EV Charger Type 2 Socket

EV Charger Type 2 Socket

EV Charger Type 2 Socket is an AC charging interface designed for electric vehicles (EVs). It complies with the international standard IEC 62196-2 Type 2 and is widely used in the European market and export electric vehicles. The socket is usually integrated into an AC charging pile or wall-mounted charging device, supports single-phase or three-phase AC charging, and has a maximum power of up to 22kW, making it suitable for residential, commercial and public charging scenarios.

Product Advantages

Modular structure design: The socket assembly adopts a modular structure, which is convenient for quick replacement or upgrading of interface modules and reduces the cost of subsequent maintenance.

Silver alloy contact material: The internal conductive contacts adopt silver alloy technology, which effectively reduces the contact resistance and improves the efficiency and service life of power transmission.

Superior anti-UV and weather resistance: The socket shell has high-level anti-ultraviolet performance, is not easy to age and discolor, and is suitable for harsh climate environments such as high temperature, humidity, and sunlight.

Integrated temperature control fuse function: Automatically cut off the power supply when the temperature is abnormal to prevent overheating from causing damage to the socket or damage to the vehicle charging system.

Anti-misplugging structure design: Special mechanical positioning design ensures that it can only be docked with the standard Type 2 plug, effectively avoiding the risk of misplugging or reverse connection.

FAQ

 

Is it safe to charge using a EV Charger Type 2 Socket?
Very safe. The socket design is equipped with a plug lock, temperature monitoring, anti-reverse connection, anti-arc and overload protection mechanisms to ensure reliable and stable charging.

 

Can EV Charger Type 2 Socket be replaced or repaired separately?
If the socket is damaged, it can be replaced according to the installation method. It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform disassembly and repair operations to ensure compliance with electrical safety regulations.

 

Does the Type 2 socket support fast charging?
Type 2 is only used for alternating current (AC) charging and is a medium-speed charging method (up to 22kW). For higher power and fast charging, a Combo 2 (CCS) socket that supports direct current (DC) charging should be used.
