2 Product Overview
The Type 2 to Type 2 EV Charging Cable is a high-power charging cable designed for AC Level 2 and Level 3 electric vehicle charging applications. Engineered to the IEC 62196-2 standard, this cable delivers up to 22 kW (3-Phase) or 7.4 kW (1-Phase) at 32A, making it suitable for both residential wallboxes and commercial charging stations.
The cable features six individual cores (5 × 6.0 mm² power conductors + 1 × 0.75 mm² signal/proximity pilot core) with Class 5 flexible stranded copper per IEC 60228, ensuring reliable power delivery while maintaining excellent flexibility for daily handling. The TPU outer jacket provides superior cold flexibility down to -35°C, exceptional abrasion resistance, and long-term UV stability — outperforming standard PVC or TPE jackets in demanding environments.
Built with IP65-rated connectors and IK10 mechanical impact protection, the cable withstands harsh outdoor conditions including rain, dust, and physical wear from frequent use in public charging stations. Each cable undergoes 2500V AC dielectric testing and 100% factory inspection to ensure electrical safety and compliance.
Manufactured under rigorous quality management by SORIVO, the charging cable is TUV and CE certified, with a proven track record across European, UK, Australian, and Southeast Asian markets. For detailed company information, please visit sorivocable.com/about-us/.
3 Key Features
IEC 62196-2 Type 2 Compliant
Fully compliant with the IEC 62196-2 standard for Type 2 (Mennekes) connectors — the European standard for AC EV charging. Compatible with all Type 2 charging stations and vehicles.
22 kW Fast Charging
Supports 32A 3-phase charging at up to 22 kW, significantly reducing charging time compared to standard 11 kW or 7.4 kW cables. Backward compatible with 1-phase systems at 7.4 kW.
Premium TPU Jacket
Thermoplastic polyurethane jacket delivers outstanding cold flexibility (down to -35°C), UV resistance, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance — far superior to PVC or TPE materials.
High-Flex Class 5 Copper
Class 5 flexible stranded copper conductor ensures ease of handling and long-term bending durability, with low electrical resistance for minimized power loss during charging.
IP65 Weatherproof
IP65-rated connectors provide reliable dust-tight and water-jet protection when mated, ensuring safe operation in outdoor environments including rain, snow, and dusty conditions.
IK10 Impact Resistance
Connector housing rated to IK10 impact protection — the highest level for EV charging equipment — ensuring durability against drops, knocks, and vehicular impact in public stations.
TUV & CE Certified
Independently tested and certified to TUV and CE standards, providing verified safety and performance assurance for installers, fleet operators, and charging network operators.
Customizable Options
Available in multiple lengths (3/5/7/10m), straight or spiral form, and customizable jacket colors. OEM/ODM orders welcome for charging network operators and EVSE manufacturers.
