European Standard Type 2 Charging gun Connection Cable

Europe’s new energy vehicle charging gun standards are mainly divided into two types: Type 2 (also known as Mennekes plug) and Combo 2 (also known as CCS plug). These charging gun standards are mainly suitable for AC charging and DC fast charging.

Type 2 (Mennekes plug): Type 2 is the most common AC charging plug standard in European charging infrastructure. It has multiple contacts and a connection with a locking mechanism for high-power AC charging. This plug is widely used in home charging piles, public charging piles and commercial charging stations.2. Combo 2 (CCS plug): Combo 2 is the European plug standard for direct current fast charging (DC), which combines a Type 2 AC plug with an additional DC plug. This plug is compatible with Type 2 AC charging and also has the DC plug required for fast charging. Due to the need for DC fast charging, the Combo 2 plug has gradually become the mainstream standard for new energy vehicles in Europe.

It should be noted that there may be some differences in charging standards and plug types between different countries and regions. Therefore, when choosing a charging device, it is best to refer to the charging standards of the country or region where you are located and ensure that the charging gun is compatible with the vehicle’s charging interface. In addition, the power and charging speed of the charging device will vary depending on the situation.
