Hi I bought a simple Type 2 Mennekes plug to Scucko socket for my electric motorcycle which only has a computer power cable socket so 1kW AC needed. When the AC Type 2 stations has socket it fits in and works fine, but there are Type 2 EV charge stations with Type 2 cable instead of socket.
In the cable end my Type 2 plug does not touch the pins, the plastic spacing is too long.
Can I cot a centimeter from the plastic plug end just to fit both socket and cable Type 2 chargers?
Thank you for your video. So from a Huawei 22kw supercharger to a Tesla model y we need a 3 phase 22kw cable? Anything else in terms of spec please?
Editing skills are on point. That intro made me laugh.These cables can all be purchased from EVSE right? I hope they're sponsoring your channel. Keep up the great work delivering easy to understand content.
Thanks for the positive feedback Anthony. Appreciate you support as always!
Thanks explained very simple way. Did you open your website??
I suppose the thing that’s missing here is what rate the particular car your charging allows you to charge for type 2 charging
Hello for bud seagull which one is best and less time to charge
Thank you 😊
Can 3,5kw 16A cable for battery : 17.3kwh 115v
For faster charging?
Thanks for the details. Very useful. Can you pls assist which cable you recommend for Tesla model Y 2023 model? 11kw or 22kw ? Yesterday i bought the type 2 cable from tesla store online Melbourne. Not sure what they offer is 11kw or 22kw - not mentioned in the site. Thanks
22kW. As explained in the video if you get an 11kW cable you will be restricted if you charge at a single phase 7kW charger.
👌
Hi. Thanks for the video. Why BYD atto3 high spec is sold with 11kw cable as an extra if provides slower charge speed? I appreciate your help
In Australia the car only comes with a trickle charger. Where are you from?
Good explanation. There may be a slight error, though : at 1:38, you're pointing to a 11kW (16A) 3-phase cable, then the zoom shows 5G6mm², which would be a 22kW (32A) 3-phase cable. A 16A cable would more likely use 2.5mm² wires.
very keen eye! yes the B-roll was actually of a 22kW cable. I intending to highlight the difference between the single and three phase cables
Great video! The differences in the various cables are clearly explained. However, I see a lot of cables on sale on Ebay that say it supports 32A 22kW, but they do not specify the actual speification of the cable used (e.g. 3Gxxx or 5Gxxx). Is this deliberate? Can I trust these cables?
My personal opinion is to buy from a reputable retailer. My view is if you can buy an EV, you can buy a $250 cable. In fact the money you save on fuel will no doubt cover the cost of the cable. Yes, they may all come from the save factory, but what you are paying for is a piece of mind, warranty and after sale support
I have three phase connection and 50Kw Peugeot E2008 Model, So what is the recommendation for cable, wire size and breaker.
Are you referring to the cable, wire size and breaker for your home wall box charger?
I’m brand new to electric vehicles, picking up a BYD Atto 3 in about a week, so just to confirm I can use the 3 phase 22kw cable on a single phase car but it will just charge at 7kw?
Thanks
Yep!
Hi. I have a 3-phase 22kw charger at home for my Atto 3. I did this for future proofing when I eventually change my car to one that will charge up to 3-phase 22kw. Is that a wise choice or should I have just stuck with a single phase 7kw charger?
Doesn't hurt to go 22kW and make sense from a future proofing pov
How about BYD Seal?
one should always buy the 22kW cable even if you can’t make full use of it now.
Regarding cable weight, what was the length of the cables, assume 5M?
Yes, 5 meters.
Hi, I bought a BYD Dolphin recently. Would you recommend to buy Type 2 to Type 2 EV Charging 5M Cable|7kW for $199 or Type 2 to Type 2 EV Charging 5M Cable|22kW for $230? EVSE also offer different lengths at 5M, 7M and 10M. What are your thoughts?
5 meter is generally enough. Max charge rate of the Dolphin is 7kW so 7kW cable is perfect!
Hi, can you use a 16A cable at a 32 A charging station?
Yes 16A = 11kW. So if you use a single phase charger (32A, 7kW) you will only get half the speed i.e 3.6kW
BYD Atto 3 can use the 22kw to charge ?
It can, but it will only draw 7kW because the onboard charger is single phase
is there a differance when charging at a DC charger?
Yes, DC chargers use different plugs. I have an earlier video explaining that
I didn’t even know that existed, I have a kona ev old wall box output was 7kwh and now new wall box installed up to 22kw output however I am only getting 3.5kw using same cable, I checked the ev setting nothing can be changed, should I get a 22kw cable instead?
If you have a single phase 32amp cable (7kW), then you should be getting 7kW regardless of a 7kW or 22kW charger. You'll only get 3.5kW if your cable is 11kW(16amps) and your car is single phase. Hope that makes sense
The car is Hyundai kona and I just checked on the cable it says 32amp i saw my collage getting 7kw from the same box so I dm confused
Hi, loved the video. Wondering how long it would take to charge a ioniq 5 at home with a 7kw single phase cable?
Thanks Samual. 7kW charger/cable will give you ~40km of range/hour of charge or 7kW/h. Ioniq 5 with 70kwh battery and 400km of range means it would take ~10h for a full charge.
@@juicdgarage amazing! Thanks for the response and detailed videos. Keep up the great work
Recharge by wifi..no cord necessary
