Mode 3

  • 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    • Mode 1: No communication between the power source and the vehicle (an outdated and not recommended method).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.

  • In what order do you charge your electric car?

    To charge your electric car safely and correctly, follow these steps in the right order: first, make sure your car is parked and switched off. Next, if you are using a home charging station or public charging point, grab the charging cable and connect it to the charging station. Then connect the other end of the charging cable to your vehicle's charging port. Check that the connection is solid and correct. If you use a Mode 2 charging cable that connects to a household socket, make sure the in-cable control box (ICCB) is properly positioned and connected before connecting the cable to the car. Once everything is connected, the charging process will start automatically. While charging, keep an eye on the charging status via the car's dashboard or the charging station indicator. Once charging is complete or you want to stop charging, disconnect from the car before disconnecting the cable from the charging station or socket.

What is the difference between a Type 2 and a Type 3 charging cable?

The main difference between a Type 2 and a Type 3 EV charging cable concerns safety and compatibility. The type 2 charging cable is the most common in Europe and is used for both home and public charging. This cable is compatible with a wide range of electric cars and charging stations. The type 3 charging cable, on the other hand, was developed mainly for the French and Italian markets and is less common in other countries. An important feature of the Type 3 charging cable is the presence of a locking mechanism for added security. However, due to its greater compatibility and market acceptance, the Type 2 charging cable has become the most popular choice for electric cars in Europe.
