Apec EV Charging Cable – 13A T2 Female-Uk PLUG W/Controller 5M (AEC103)

Description

Genuine Apec · Part no. AEC103

This Apec charging cable lets a Type 2 electric or plug-in hybrid car charge from a standard UK 13A socket, through an in-line controller that checks the connection and manages the current. At 5m long, IP55 rated and supplied with a storage bag, it is a backup charger to keep in the boot.

Good to know

• Is my car Type 2? Almost certainly if it is recent: Type 2 is the standard car inlet in the UK and Europe, while some older cars like the first Nissan Leaf use Type 1.
• Can I leave it out in the rain? It is IP55 rated, so it copes with rain, but keep the controller and plugs off wet ground and fit the caps when it isn't plugged in.
• What should I check before each use? Look over the cable, controller and plugs for cuts, cracked housings or scorched pins, and don't use it if anything is damaged.
