Please Read Before You Buy

Our cables are normally returned for one of the reasons below. Reading this information may help you to avoid having to send your order back to us. Please also read the Cable Description further down the page as it contains important information about this Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable.

Is your vehicle already supplied with a Type 2 charging cable? Please ask your dealer / seller if they have included an EV cable with your vehicle.
Is your cable long enough? Measure the length from your wall charger to where your vehicle will usually be parked (the Type 2 vehicle socket is usually on the right side, to the rear of the vehicle) and add half a metre to avoid overstretch. If you are using the charging cable with a public charging point, the 5 metre cable (8M for a spiral cable) is recommended as the 3 metre length can sometimes be too short.
Is this an extension cable? No. It cannot be used to daisy chain / convert a tethered cable or home / mains charger. It can only be used to plug directly in to the Type 2 socket of the charging point.
Is this the correct type of charging cable for my vehicle? If you know that your vehicle has a Type 2 socket, then this Type 2 cable is compatible with your vehicle. If you are unsure, check the list of Type 2 electric vehicles below or use our EV Cable Finder.
Is this a rapid charging cable? This is not a CCS cable. If you want a cable to use with a DC rapid charger, you do not need to buy one as the cable is always attached to the unit.

Cable Care & Warranty

Our Type 2 to Type 2 cables have a 24 months manufacturer warranty. However, following the instructions and safety information for using your Type 2 to Type 2 cable will help to ensure trouble-free use and you can also register for a 5 year extended warranty. In case you do not receive the user booklet, please notify us. Please also check out our EV Cable Care Guide for tips on how to safely use your EV cable and how to avoid the most common reasons why a Type 2 charging cable will stop working.

Single Phase 32A Coiled Cable For Connecting All Models Of The BMW EV To A Type 2 Socket Charging Point

Our 7kW Type 2 to Type 2 coiled charging cable will provide up to 7.4kW and can be plugged into the Type 2 socket of the BMW EV and any Type 2 charging point that does not have a cable already attached to it. It does not matter if the charging point is 3 Phase or 1 Phase because the charging point will work out how much current your EV will accept and how much current the cable can handle. The cable can therefore be used with ALL Type 2 charging points with an open socket and the Type 2 socket of the BMW EV. This cable is not an extension cable and it will not work if it is connected to another Type 2 plug. It is therefore not suitable for charging points with a cable already attached to it (a tethered cable) or as an extension for any other charging cable The working length of a coiled cable is about 2 metres below their stated length.

Choosing The Correct Charging Cable

Our Type 2 coiled cables adhere to the IEC 62196-2 standard. This ensures compatibility with Type 2 socket charging points and any Type 2 socket-equipped vehicle.

The vehicle and charging point will communicate with each other to ensure they deliver the precise amount of current to the vehicle. Therefore, it does not matter if a charging cable can supply more power than the vehicle can accept.

This cable is therefore suitable for charging the Type 2 socket of the BMW EV. Please note that the manufacturer of this vehicle did not manufacture this charging cable.

Most electric vehicles sold in Europe come with a Type 2 socket, which may have either a 7 hole charging socket or a 9 hole CCS socket. CCS (Combined Charging Socket), accommodates the Type 2 cable in its 7 hole upper chamber.

Choice Of Cable Bags

We provide a free canvas cable bag (suitable for cables up to 10M) to store this charger when not in use. You can also upgrade the bag to a cable case made from EVA material for enhanced waterproofing and impact protection. The EVA case has an elasticated strap in the bottom compartment and elasticated mesh pocket in the top. So it allows convenient storage of two cables. The EVA case can therefore carry 2 cables if each cable does not exceed 10 metres length (20M total length).
