Overview
The Model 3 is an easy car to live with, and the cable you keep in the boot is a decent part of why. Ours are sized for real driveways and real car parks, in 5m, 10m, 15m and 20m, so you are not stretching a short lead across a bay or coiling ten spare metres every night.
Which cable suits your setup
- Type 2 to Type 2: the standard choice for Model 3 drivers. It works at home and at public charge points, and it is the one to reach for day to day.
- Type 2 to 3-Pin: plugs into an ordinary household socket, which makes it the answer when there is no dedicated charge point available.
Every Model 3 cable we supply is CE marked and TÜV certified, weather-resistant to IP66 and covered by a 24 month manufacturer warranty.

Features
-
Run-over proof
Built to take the weight of a car, so you can drive over the cable without damaging it (protection against pressure).
-
All-weather rated
Rated IP55, with the Type 2 to 3-Pin version rated IP67, and built to operate from -30°C to +60°C, so it charges reliably through UK rain, frost and summer heat.
-
Universal Type 2 fit
Works with all Type 2 electric vehicles and every UK/EU home wallbox and public AC charge point. No brand lock-in.
-
CE / TÜV certified
Independently certified to CE and TÜV, and built to the IEC 62196-2 Type 2 connector standard.
-
3-pin option for home sockets
Choose the 3-pin version to top up from a standard UK domestic socket when there is no wallbox nearby. It is a separate cable option, not an attachment.
-
Three-phase option
Pick the 32A three-phase version to charge at up to 22kW where a three-phase supply is available. The single-phase versions charge at up to 7.2kW on a standard home wallbox.

- 02Wallbox end first, then the car. Push until the latch clicks.
- 03Check the car shows a charging state before you walk away.
- 04Coil loosely into the bag - no tight figure-of-eights.

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.
