Description of cable requirements for electric vehicle charging modes

In the Electric Vehicle Cables Forum, we share the latest technologies, market trends and innovative applications regarding electric vehicle cables. Through exchanges and discussions, we not only deepened our understanding of the electric vehicle cable industry, but also broadened our thinking and horizons. We believe that electric vehicle cables will play an important role in future development and contribute to the development of clean energy transportation.


There are generally three methods of new energy charging: portable charging, household charging and public charging piles. Different charging methods are suitable for different scenarios and charging needs. But no matter which charging mode is used, the pursuit of charging reliability is the top priority. Electric vehicle charging cables are used to connect electric vehicle charging devices and charging infrastructure to transmit power to electric vehicles. They are equipped with a certain number of signal lines, control lines, power auxiliary lines, etc. to ensure accurate control of the entire charging process and safe operation. . Charging cables are generally used in charging stations, parking lots, hotels, communities, garages and other areas. Portable charging cables can be placed in cars. Charging cables are an important carrier for power transmission. It is necessary to choose suitable cables for different charging modes to better ensure charging efficiency and safety.


Portable charging and household charging generally use alternating current, which charges slowly; while most public charging piles use direct current, focusing on charging efficiency. Since home charging piles are usually installed and used by individuals, they have higher safety requirements. Therefore, the cables used in home charging piles have undergone strict safety certification and are waterproof, high temperature resistant and fireproof. In addition, the cable length of household charging piles is generally longer to adapt to the needs of different parking locations. The cables used in public charging piles require higher durability and stability. Due to the high frequency of use of public charging piles, cables need to withstand more plugging and unplugging and the influence of the external environment. Therefore, the cables used by public charging piles are made of more wear-resistant, pressure-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure a long service life and stable charging effect.
