THE PROBLEM
Most EV drivers frequently charge their vehicle, not only using their charger at home, but also at public charging points. This is where they need the portable charging cable, which comes with the car. Charging often happens outside or in a parking place, where the cable can get wet or dirty from lying on the ground. As a result, your hands and clothes get dirty when handling the cable after charging. Once charging is complete, the cable needs to be stored in the trunk, where it takes up unnecessary space and slides around while driving. As a result of such handling, the cable often gets twisted and tangled and the boot of the vehicle gets dirty.
THE HEADACHES
- Cable Gets Wet and Dirty Which Results in Dirty Hands and Clothes.
- Cable Gets Tangled and Takes Too Much Space In The Trunk.
- Cable Is Difficult To Handle.
- Always Messy Business Wrestling The Cable.
- No Good Cable Management System.
- Cable Can Break Or Tear Inside Due To Unwanted Twisting.
THE SOLUTION
Solutions currently available are limited to cable bags or boxes, which do not offer a lot of benefits and do not solve any of the issues besides providing a way to store the cable in the trunk. A downside is that it takes some effort to put the cable in the bag, and this is probably the reason why they are not used a lot and the cable ends up being thrown in the trunk.
THE EV CABLE REEL
Our EV Reel is designed to handle the cable only by the plugs during the process of connecting and disconnecting the vehicle to and from the charging station. So, dirty hands and clothes are no longer an issue. Using the EV Reel prevents the cable from getting twisted and tangled, and using the docking station the cable can be conveniently stored, preventing it from sliding around in the trunk and leaving dirt behind.

FAQs
Q - Would this product/item/cable work as an extension cable?
A - No. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards don't allow for extension cables on EV Cables.The IEC standard is clear on the matter; “A cord extension set or second cable assembly shall not be used in addition to the cable assembly for the connection of the EV to EVSE.”. Therefore any EV extension cable will sit outside of the standards and may affect your vehicle warranty in the event of a claim. More details and options here:https://evcables.co.uk/pages/ev-extension-cable
Q - Why is one of the pins further back on my plug?
A - This is part of the standard. It is a safety feature on the plugs/cable so when it is unplugged the power disconnects first.
Charging Cable Checklist
Before buying your EV cable, make sure you’ve selected the right cable for your electric
vehicle with our checklist:
Confirm the charging cable is compatible with your electric vehicle (EV). Use our car model search to find the correct cable for your vehicle, or check if your vehicle is listed in the ‘Car Checker’ tab. Want to double check? Simply speak to our team.
Check it’s the right length for your needs. For example, if you’re using a public charging station, we recommend a length of 5 metres because it’s not always possible to park on the nearest side of the charging station. If you’re using the cable with a wall charger at home or work, simply measure the length needed to reach the vehicle socket.
Don’t have your electric vehicle yet? Check with the manufacturer, dealer or seller to confirm if it already comes with a charging cable.
This cable can’t be used to adapt or extend an existing charging cable. If a charging cable is already connected to a charging point, it can’t be daisy-chained together to extend the length. It can only be used with the open socket of a charging point.
This EV charging cable is compatible with AC charging stations usually found in supermarkets, retail parks, on the street and wall chargers, typically installed outside a home or office. It’s not a DC fast charging cable (also known as CCS and CHAdeMO), so you don’t need to buy a cable to use fast charging stations as they’re already connected to the charging station.
Still unsure? Simply get in touch and we’ll make sure you buy right first time.
