Product Description

Fifteen metres is a length people arrive at by necessity rather than preference. This Type 2 tethered cable is for the wallbox that has to reach a long way: a charge point by the house with parking at the end of a long drive, a unit fitted where the supply came in rather than where the car sits, or a shared yard where the nearest wall is nowhere near the bay.

It is a tethered cable, which means it does not travel with you. One end is wired permanently inside the charge point during installation and the other is a Type 2 plug for the car. Nothing is stored, nothing is coiled into a boot, and there is no lead lying about to be picked up by anyone passing.

The cable is rated at 32A. On a British home supply, which is single phase, 7.4 kW is the maximum available no matter what is fitted, so the 32A rating exists to make sure the cable is never the limiting factor. Length does not slow charging down. A 15m lead delivers exactly what a 5m one does.

What length does cost you is handling. Fifteen metres of 32A cable is heavy and takes real effort to gather up neatly, which is one reason a wall bracket is worth fitting beside the unit. Only order this length if you have measured and shorter genuinely will not reach, because a tethered cable cannot be swapped without an electrician returning.

Installation is an electrician's job for the same reason: the cable is terminated inside the charge point. If a shorter run works for you, our 5m and 10m Type 2 tethered cables cost less and are far easier to manage.

Sealed to IP55, with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty and free next working day UK delivery.

FAQs

15m Type 2 Tethered Cable FAQs

When do I actually need 15 metres?

When the charge point cannot be mounted near the car. Common cases are a wallbox fixed by the consumer unit at the house with parking at the far end of the drive, a garage wall on the wrong side, or shared parking where the bay and the wall are simply distant from one another. Measure before ordering.

What does tethered mean on a charge point?

The cable is built into the unit permanently instead of being a loose lead you plug in at both ends. It hangs from the wallbox between charges. A socketed or untethered unit works the other way, with a bare socket on the wall that you connect your own portable cable into every time.

Which end goes into the car?

The Type 2 connector. The opposite end has no plug, because it is wired directly into the charge point when the cable is fitted. That is why a tethered cable arrives with a single connector and cannot be used as a portable lead between a public post and your car.

Can I install it myself?

No. Fitting requires opening the charge point and terminating the cable inside it, which is electrical work on a hard wired appliance. Use a qualified electrician, and ideally the installer who commissioned your unit, since they already know how it is wired and whether it accepts a replacement lead.

Does 15 metres of cable slow charging down?

No. The car draws the lowest of three limits: its own onboard charger, the supply feeding the charge point, and the cable rating. On a single phase home supply that ceiling is 7.4 kW, and a 32A cable of any length passes it without difficulty. Length affects weight and handling, not speed.

Do I still need a cable in the boot?

Yes, if you charge away from home. This cable is fixed to your wallbox and never leaves it. Public and workplace AC posts almost always have sockets, so you need your own portable Type 2 lead for those. Keep one in the boot alongside a bag to store it in.

Sizing guide
  • Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable:

    A charging cable that connects electric vehicles (EVs) with a Type 2 connector to charging points is also equipped with a Type 2 socket. It supports faster charging speeds and is commonly used across Europe for EVs with this standard connection.

  • Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable:

    This cable allows electric vehicles with a Type 2 socket to charge from a standard UK 3-pin domestic outlet. It provides a slower charge but is useful for home or emergency charging when dedicated charging stations aren't available.

  • Type 2 Extension Cable:

    A cable used to extend the reach of a Type 2 charging cable. It's helpful when the existing cable is too short to connect an electric vehicle to the charging point, providing more flexibility in parking.

  • Type 2 Tethered Cable:

    A fixed charging cable attached to a charging point, designed for electric vehicles with a Type 2 socket. The tethered design eliminates the need to carry a separate cable, offering convenience for regular charging at home or work.

  • Type 1 to Type 2 Charging Cable:

    A charging cable that connects electric vehicles with a Type 1 socket to charging points equipped with a Type 2 outlet. This allows EVs with the older Type 1 standard to use more modern charging infrastructure.

  • Type 1 to 3 Pin Charging Cable:

    This cable enables electric vehicles with a Type 1 connector to charge from a standard UK 3-pin household outlet. It's suitable for slower charging at home when dedicated EV charging points aren't accessible.

Sizing guide
  • 5m - Charging Cable Length

    A 5M charging cable is the shortest length that we offer. It is a great option if you can park close to the charge point and do not need much length to reach your car.

  • 10m - Charging Cable Length

    A 10M charging cable is the most popular length. It allows you to have enough flexibility whilst still being easy enough to move. This is a great option if you cannot park close to the electricity supply.

  • 15m - Charging Cable Length

    A 15M charging cable is a great choice if you need some extra flexibility, i.e. get past another car or reach the other end of a driveway. The length of the cable does not affect the charging speed.

  • 20m - Charging Cable Length

    A 20M charging cable is the longest cable that we currently offer. 20M reaches the vast majority of locations where you would want to charge your car. Always use one continuous cable. Never join two charging cables together and never charge through an extension lead, because the join is where heat builds up.

How to choose your charge speed
  • 6amp – 10amp Adjustable

    The choice if you will charge from a standard UK 3 pin socket. It runs at the most the socket can safely supply, and the control box lets you turn the current down for a slower, gentler charge overnight or on an older circuit.

  • 16amp

    A 16amp cable will be able to charge at 3.7kW. This is the cheapest product if your car's max charge speed is 3.7kW. If you have two electric cars or are looking to purchase another it might be worth considering a faster charging cable as this could limit charge speeds moving forward.

  • 32amp

    A 32amp charging cable will be able to charge at 7.4kW, which is the most a single phase UK home supply can deliver. A 32amp cable also charges at every lower speed (for example 16amp, 3.7kW), so it is the right choice if your home charge point is 7.4kW or you mostly charge at home.

  • 32amp (3 Phase)

    A 32amp 3-phase charging cable will be able to charge at all speeds up to 22kW, so the cable never limits your charge speed at home or in public. It is also capable of charging at all lower charge speeds.
