We only sell charging cables
Type 1 or Type 2. 16A or 32A. Single phase or three. Ten metres or twenty. It's a lot to be sure about for something you'll use every day for a decade, and it's the only thing we do.
Tell us the car, we'll tell you the cable. Get it wrong anyway and we pay the return.
Which cable do I need?
Three questions, about twenty seconds
1 - What do you drive?
Or pick your make and model instead.
2 - Where will you charge?
3 - How far is the port from the box?
Or skip it - browse all charging cables
We deliberately dropped chargers from the range. It costs us a category, and it buys us the ability to answer any question about the one thing that is left.
Fit
Per-model compatibility
Port type, max AC rate, phase and port position, listed per model, not "fits most EVs".
Spec

What customers say
First class service
First class service. Ordered 15m cable and it was delivered next day. Minor hiccup in that the accompanying bag was missing. Quick email to Jake at EV Cable Hub and the bag arrived next working day. 1st class product and even better customer service. Thank you.

Type 2 both ends for anything sold new since 2018, Type 1 for the older Leafs and Outlanders. Five to thirty metres, 16A, 32A or three phase depending on what your car and your supply can actually take.
V2L adapters draw mains power back out of the battery through the car's own charge port, so a kettle, a set of tools or a fridge runs off it. Not every EV supports it, and we will tell you plainly if yours does not.
A granny cable plugs into any domestic 13A socket, so you can charge at a relative's house, a holiday cottage or anywhere without a post. Slow, roughly 10 miles of range an hour, but it has got a lot of people home.

FAQs
Tell us the make and model and we will tell you the cable. The finder at the top of this page maps the cars we cover to the cables that fit them, or email jake@evcablehub.co.uk and we will check it before you order rather than after.
Type 2 is the UK and European standard for any EV sold new since 2018. Type 1 is mostly older Japanese imports: Nissan Leaf, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, early i-MiEVs. If your car was bought new in the UK in the last six or seven years, you are Type 2.
5m suits most homes where the wallbox is near the parking space. Go to 10m if the charger is at the far end of the drive, or your charge port is on the opposite side of the car to the box. 15m and above are for on-street charging and awkward layouts. Longer is not better: the cable gets heavier, dearer and harder to store.
A single-phase 32A Type 2 cable carries up to 7.4kW, roughly 25 to 30 miles of range an hour on most cars. A 16A cable is 3.6kW. Three-phase 22kW cables go higher again, but only if your property has a three-phase supply and your car's onboard charger can accept it, which most cannot. A 3-pin granny cable runs at about 2.3kW, near enough 8 to 10 miles an hour.
Yes, while it is connected. Our Type 2 charging cables are IP55 rated, and the 3-pin end of a granny cable is IP67. V2L discharge cables are IP44, so they take splashes but should not sit in standing water. Nothing here is made to be submerged, so coil the cable at the high point of the drive and keep any V2L outlet off the ground.
If your wallbox is tethered the cable is already attached and you do not need another. If it is untethered, which is a bare Type 2 socket on the wall, you bring your own cable each time. Most of our customers have an untethered wallbox or charge at public AC posts, and both need a separate cable.
Yes. Mode 3 Type 2 cables are an open standard, IEC 62196-2, so a cable from us works with any UK or European wallbox: Ohme, Hypervolt, MyEnergi, Pod Point, Easee, Andersen, Wallbox and the rest. There is no brand lock-in.
