What is an EV Cable?

EV cable is the charging cable that will be used to charge the Electric Vehicle. Every electric vehicle comes with a set of charging cables. The cable has a 3-pin plug at one end for domestic plugs and at the other end, there’s the correct plug according to the requirement of the Electric Car.

However, for charging at public charge-points, another cable will be required with an appropriate plug; often companies provide both sets of cables with their electric car, but in case there’s a single domestic cable, the owner can buy the cable for public charging-points from the manufacturer or third-party retailer.

If you struggling to reach your car from your charging station, it might be an issue with the length of the cable. Generally, car manufacturers will supply you with a standard 5m EV charging cable, for some users this might be suitable but others might not be enough. With the increasing number of electric cars on the road, even though charging stations are becoming more popular you may need a longer EV cable.
