Datasheet

The 350kW rapid chargepoint network is being rolled out across the UK and Europe at motorway service stations, garage forecourts and other high traffic locations, allowing electric vehicle owners to recharge their batteries in a mere 20 minutes.

We have developed an EV DC Connection cable offering and improved DC Voltage rating (1.8/1.8 (1.8)kV Uo/U (Um) and 9.6kV DC Test Voltage) making it ideally suited to the high-powered rapid charging equipment.

With their single core construction they are commonly used instead of Coil End Lead, BS5467 AWA single core, and NYY cables.

The EV DC Connection cable features Class 5 Flexible Stranded Copper conductor, Elastomeric Mixture insulation, Non-Fibrous, Non Hygroscopic filler, and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) outer sheath.

It has an operating temperature of -15ºC to +90ºC and a minimum bending radius of 4 x overall diameter for power flexible cables, and 6 x overall diameter for control flexible cables.

This single core cable is available in conductor sizes ranging from 4mm² to 40mm².

Our solution for 350kW Electric vehicle charging point cable has already been adopted by major players in the EV market - both vehicle manufacturers and chargepoint installers – with our customised approach drawing on our wealth of experience across European and international standards.

Starting from our customers’ specific requirements to and from the EV charging station, we provide technical support and advice covering the technical design, including cable conductors, insulation, mechanical protection and outer sheath requirements (eg. UV-resistant, oil-resistant, high temperature rating). We also offer technical support with the design of the various components including EV charging cable connectors and their assembly to offer plug-&-play solutions. Our EV charging cable solutions include comprehensive testing by our Cable Lab for quality assurance and reliable logistical solutions allowing our customers to rely on just-in-time deliveries of pre-cut cable lengths with or without connectors.

We also stock a broad range of cables to support standard domestic/industrial units and public installations, including trickle, fast and rapid chargers. To view the extended range see our E-Mobility industry page.

For more information on cables for rapid chargepoints, or for technical support including compliance with BS7671:2018 Section 722 and the 2020 amendment, please get in touch with our Technical Hotline on +44 (0)20 7241 8500.
