Frequently Asked Questions
Most UK homes have single-phase electricity (7.4kW max). Three-phase is common in commercial settings and charges at up to 22kW. Check your wallbox spec — if it says "3-phase" or "22kW", choose three-phase. For home use, single-phase is usually sufficient.
All our Type 2 cables work with any EV using a Type 2 (Mennekes) port — Audi, BMW, Mercedes, VW, Tesla, Kia, Hyundai, Ford and most UK models. Use the Find My Cable checker on the home page to confirm your specific model.
5M works well when your wallbox is directly beside your parking space. 10M gives extra reach and is better if you charge at varied locations. When in doubt, go 10M — extra cable is easier to manage than one that doesn't reach.
IP55 is an international standard for dust and water resistance. It means our cables are protected against dust ingress and water jets from any direction — safe to use in rain, frost, and damp conditions year-round.
