Type 2 EV socket 3 phase 32A

The socket is designed for use in EVs as the car-side charging connection and will accept a compatible, Type 2, FEMALE plug.  It has a plastic, tethered, twist-on dust cap.  It does not contain any illumination LEDs but has provision for fitting them behind the red and green lenses. It comes with 4 x stainless steel M5 x 15mm Countersunk hex-drive bolts, washers and nyloc nuts.

The socket can be ordered with or without 1 or 3 phase, 16A (2.5mm2 CSA) or 32A (6.0mm2 CSA) copper wire tails pre-attached using an 8T hydraulic crimper.  Standard cable lengths are 1, 3, & 5m.  These come in a flexible black/orange conduit, 20mm in diameter (O/S dimension).  Longer lengths may be ordered.

Both plug and socket are 3 phase (3P) compatible and come with 3P connections included - the only difference between 1P and 3P plugs is the size of the cable inlet.  1P plugs have a maximum cable diameter of 18mm; 3P plugs have a maximum cable diameter of 25mm. Therefore, if you want to use 16A, 3P cable, you can order a 1P plug as the cable entry will be large enough.  If you want to use a 3P 32A cable you must order a 3 phase plug.

All pins/sleeves have a conductor entry hole of 4mm diameter, large enough for 10mm2 (60A-70A) conductors, maximum.
