It is a standardized connector designed for safe and efficient charging. A Type 2 charging cable has a connector with a specific shape and number of pins at both ends. The connector on one side is inserted into the charging point, while the connector on the other side is inserted into the vehicle. It is used for charging vehicles with a matching Type 2 connector.

The Type 2 charging cable is designed to deliver alternating current (AC) to the vehicle and supports various charging speeds, depending on the vehicle's charging capacity and the available charging infrastructure. These cables can be used for both regular charging stations and fast chargers, depending on the maximum current they can handle.

Using a Type 2 charging cable offers several advantages, including wider compatibility with charging points in Europe and the ability to charge at higher power levels for faster charging.

It is important to ensure that your vehicle is compatible with a Type 2 charging cable and that the charging point you are using also has a Type 2 connector. Refer to your vehicle's manual or contact the manufacturer to confirm which type of connector is suitable for your vehicle and which charging cable you need.
