Type 2 | 1 phase | 32A | 7.4kW charging cable

Charging cable type 2 - 7.4kW
With our Europe-made type 2 charging cable, you can charge your electric car or PHEV with type 2 connection in any Wallbox or charging station at home or abroad. This charging cable is suitable for single-phase charging up to 32 amps. This makes it suitable for a maximum charging power of 7.4kW.
Flexible and durable charging cable
What sets this type 2 charging cable apart from other charging cables is that the cable we use is smoother and more durable than other charging cables on the market. The best cable is produced in Italy, which is also where the cable we use is produced.
What makes this cable better is that it is produced from a larger number but finer copper wires. This makes the cable smoother and more resistant to right-angle bends.
European charging cables

Safe and strong construction
The jacket around the copper is specially made to withstand high temperatures, rain and abrasion and has been tested and certified to charge electric cars.
The plugs we have developed are produced from 1 whole and therefore not glued or screwed together. This makes the plugs stronger, more wear-resistant and more waterproof than other plugs on the market. The contact pins in the plug are made of 100% copper and then silver-plated to prevent rust and corrosion.
Charging cables are a consumer good and wear and tear occurs with them. Because we are so sure of the quality of our charging cables, we give a 100% guarantee on our charging cables for the first 3 years, and up to 5 years 50% guarantee on the purchase price.

Do Voldt charging cables lose power due to their length?

No noticeable power loss, even with longer cables
No, Voldt charging cables do not experience any significant power loss due to their length. Voldt uses only high-quality copper conductors with low resistance, ensuring that even longer cables (such as 10 or 15 metres) can efficiently transmit current without noticeable voltage drop. The cables are designed according to international standards (such as IEC 61851 and IEC 62196), which specify maximum allowable voltage drop and heat development, so charging performance remains optimal.
Optimal conductor size prevents voltage drop
In theory, longer charging cables could lead to some power loss, particularly if the cable has a thin conductor or is made from lower-quality materials. Voldt prevents this by using conductors with appropriate cross-sectional area depending on the cable’s maximum current rating (e.g. 6 mm² for 32A 3-phase cables). This keeps voltage drop to negligible levels—typically less than 1%—which is well within regulatory limits. This is crucial for both safety and charging efficiency.
Tested for performance and safety
Finally, all Voldt cables are rigorously tested for electrical performance, temperature rise, and reliability under load. Customers can trust that even a 15-metre cable performs just as well as a shorter one. This makes Voldt cables ideal for situations where the charging point is further away from the vehicle, without compromising on speed or safety.
What is mode 3 charging EV?
Mode 3 charging for an electric vehicle (EV) is a charging method where the EV is charged via a dedicated charging station or wallbox, with controlled and secure communication between the car and the charging point. It is the most commonly used and recommended way to charge at home and at public charging stations.
Key Features of Mode 3 Charging:
1. Direct connection to a charging station
2. Safety and Intelligence
3. Charging Power
4. Smart Charging
Advantages of Mode 3 Charging:
✔️ Faster charging than a standard household socket (Mode 2).
✔️ Ensures safety with built-in communication and protection mechanisms.
✔️ Efficient energy management with smart charging functionalities.
Comparison with Other Charging Modes:
- Mode 1: No communication between the power source and the vehicle (an outdated and not recommended method).
- Mode 2: Charging via an electrical socket using a special cable where a computer in the cable handles the communication.
- Mode 4: DC fast charging (e.g., CHAdeMO or CCS) where direct current is supplied straight to the battery, often up to 350 kW.
In summary, Mode 3 is the standard and recommended method for daily EV charging, especially at home and public charging points. 🚗⚡
Are Voldt's charging cables suitable for every charging station in the United Kingdom?

Yes, Voldt’s Type 1 and Type 2 charging cables are suitable for any charging station in the UK. Be aware that our Type 3 charging cables are only suitable for a Type 3 charging station typically found in France or Italy.
What is the difference between the male and female sides of an EV charging cable plug?

The difference between the male and female sides of an EV charging cable plug lies in their destination. The male plug (IEC 62196-2) is the plug that goes into a charging station. The female plug (IEC 62196-2) is the plug that goes into your car. This ensures a proper usage of the cable. It also makes it impossible to use some sort of extension cable.

What charging cables are available for electric cars?

To connect the electric car to a public charging station (charging mode 3), a type 2 charging cable is required. Type 2 in this case refers to the type of connector/connection on the side of the charging station. There are two types of connectors on the side of the vehicle. These are the IEC 621961 type 1 connector (also known as Yazaki), abbreviated to type 1, and the IEC 621962 type 2 connector (also known as Mennekes), abbreviated to type 2.
