High-Amperage Engineering for the J1772 Standard
Scalable Power for Every Electric Vehicle
Our Type 1 EV charging cable series is designed to handle the evolving power needs of modern electric vehicles. While a 16A cable is perfect for Plug-in Hybrids, our 80A variant is specifically engineered for high-capacity vehicles like the Ford F-150 Lightning and Lucid Air, allowing them to utilize their full onboard charger capacity for the fastest possible AC charging.
Technical Expertise & Safety
As an expert in EVSE solutions, we ensure every component meets rigorous electrical and mechanical thresholds:
-
Certified Reliability: Fully approved with UR / cUR marks, compliant with UL 2251 and CSA C22.2 standards. This ensures your installation meets all North American safety and building codes.
-
Superior Environmental Protection: Rated at IP67 / 3R even when unmated. This cable is built to withstand extreme outdoor conditions, including heavy rain, snow, and dust, at altitudes up to 5,000 meters.
-
Advanced Thermal Management: To ensure Trustworthiness, we offer optional NTC or PT1000 temperature sensors. These provide real-time thermal feedback to the charging station, preventing overheating during prolonged high-current (80A) sessions.
-
Premium Cable Architecture: Our cables utilize specialized structures (up to 2 x 6AWG + 1 x 8AWG for the 80A model) with UL Listed EVE jackets. This ensures the cable remains flexible and durable even under the thermal stress of 19.2kW power delivery.

🛠️ Expert Amperage & Cable Guide
Selecting the correct cable structure is vital for site safety and efficiency:
-
16A: Uses EVC 3 x 14AWG (10.5mm O.D.) – Ideal for light-duty residential use.
-
32A / 40A: Available in UL Recognised (12.0mm O.D.) or UL Listed (15.8mm O.D.) variants.
-
80A (High Power): Features a massive 19.1mm to 24.0mm O.D. with 2 x 6AWG power conductors to handle 19.2kW without excessive voltage drop.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the 80A cable be used on a standard home outlet?
A: No. The 80A cable requires a dedicated 100A circuit breaker and a hardwired charging station. It is designed for vehicles with high-capacity onboard chargers.
Q: What is the benefit of the IP67/3R rating?
A: This indicates that the connector is protected against dust and heavy rain. Unlike standard IP54 cables, this can withstand much harsher outdoor environments without moisture ingress.
Q: Is it compatible with Tesla?
A: Yes, when using the standard J1772-to-Tesla adapter. This cable provides the high-quality AC feed required for any J1772-compliant adapter.
