Type 1 Cable FAQs
When you invest in an electric vehicle, you’ll want to invest just as much time, care, and attention to the charging equipment that you decide to get.
Choosing to go for cheaper type 1 to type 2 charging cables will mean buying equipment that is sub-par and won’t be as effective or efficient at charging your electric vehicle.
Cheaper cables will often use poorly made materials in the manufacturing process to save on manufacturing costs, however, for the consumer this can lead to energy loss and battery problems.
Don’t compromise on cables. Keep your charging cost-effective and quick, and purchase a high-quality Smartly type 1 to type 2 charging cable for your EV.
Type 1 charging cables were one of the first kinds of cables introduced to charge electric vehicles. Generally, type 1 charging cables are used in older models of electric vehicles in the UK, Europe, and Asia.
It is important that you double-check what kind of charging cable your EV will need, as type 1 charging cables tend to be rarer here in the UK unless you have an older EV model.
Primarily, type 1 charging cables are most commonly used for American vehicles. Type 1 charging cables are single-phase cables and can only handle up to 7.4 kW from chargers.
In contrast, some type 2 chargers can handle up to 43 kW as a selection of these cables will be triple-phase cable types.
As providers of sustainable charging solutions, Smartly are dedicated to optimising your EVs charging potential. We manufacture high-quality, British-made charging cables that offer your EV a reliable and effective charging capability.
Our type 1 to type 2 charging cables are designed and manufactured in the UK using only the best materials, so we can guarantee that they’re able to give you the strongest charge possible. Our charging cables are designed to minimise energy loss and provide your EV with a fast, lasting charge without damaging the battery.
Our type 1 charging cables are designed to be effective and convenient for all of your charging needs. They feature a flexible, lightweight design and are dust and heat-resistant. They are able to safely carry current from your charger to your EV, providing you with an effective battery charge.
At Smartly, we want to make charging your EV as simple as possible for you. Our chargers are available in a variety of customisable options, so you can order one that fits your personal EV needs. Some of these options include:
- Coil – we offer either our chargers in coiled or straight options.
- Phase – you can get our type 1 to type 2 chargers for single-phase or three-phase power supplies.
- Length – our charging cables are available in 3m, 5m, 10m and 20m length options so you can choose what will work best for you.
- Colour – pick between high-visibility lime or subtle grey when you choose your charging cable.
All of our chargers are dispatched from the UK with free and fast UK postage. We want to help you make the most of your EV, so we offer a range of effective charging solutions to accompany your cables including chargers and charging accessories.
