Type-2 7.4kw Plug to 32A CEE Connector EV Charge-Point 230V Power Converter

Turn your EV charger into a high-power 230 V outlet. The Type 2 → CEE 32 A Adapter Cable from MotorCables safely delivers up to 7.4 kW (32 A single-phase) from any compatible Type 2 charge post. Perfect for motorhomes, catering vans, outdoor workshops, and other setups that need more power than a standard 16 A outlet can supply.

Key Features

• High-capacity output: Provides a stable 230 V / 32 A feed (≈ 7.4 kW) for heavy-duty use.
• Integrated control electronics: Built-in CP & PP modules ensure correct handshake and current-limit detection.
• Compact design: Approximately 90 cm from plug to socket — short, safe, and portable.
• Industrial-grade 32 A CEE socket: IEC 60309 blue connector ideal for camping, catering, and workshop gear.
• Reliable construction: Assembled and electrically tested by MotorCables in the UK.

How It Works

Connect the Type 2 plug to your charge point to activate a secure single-phase 32 A output via the blue CEE socket. Built-in electronics simulate a vehicle handshake so the charger supplies full current safely.

For lighter loads or smaller sites, try our Type 2 → CEE 16 A Converter, which provides up to 3.6 kW for e-bike chargers and light tools.

Important Information on Load Balancing

This adapter performs best on fixed-output 32 A chargers. If your wallbox uses dynamic load balancing, the current may fluctuate during peak demand, which can momentarily pause power. For consistent output, use a fixed single-phase charge point rated 7.4 kW.

Ideal Applications

• Motorhomes, caravans & camping hookups
• Outdoor catering vans & mobile workshops
• Construction tools, heaters & lighting systems
• Portable charging for CEE 16 A adapters or 32 A extension leads

MotorCables Tip

Always keep the connectors dry and off the ground when in use. For a weather-resistant setup at home or events, pair this adapter with our Masterplug WBX Weatherproof Box to keep sockets protected from rain — that’s why we test them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter cable be used for?

It connects a Type 2 EV charge point to a 32 A CEE socket, supplying 230 V / 32 A power for motorhomes, catering vans, and outdoor tools up to 7.4 kW.

How long is the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter cable?

The cable measures roughly 90 cm — short enough for tidy portable setups and easy storage.

Does this Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter work on load-balanced charge points?

It works best on fixed-output 32 A chargers. Dynamic load-balanced systems may reduce power during peak usage and cause temporary resets.

What safety features are inside the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter cable?

It includes built-in Control Pilot (CP) and Proximity Pilot (PP) circuits to correctly communicate with the charger and limit current safely.

Can I power tools or appliances using the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter cable?

Yes — it provides a standard 230 V / 32 A feed suitable for high-demand outdoor tools and appliances. Always confirm your devices are rated for 32 A use.

Is there a smaller version of the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter available?

Yes, our Type 2 → CEE 16 A Converter offers 3.6 kW output for lighter loads like e-bike chargers or small power tools.

Can I extend the reach of the Type 2 → CEE 32 A adapter cable?

Yes — use our 32 A 230 V Extension Leads up to 25 m, made from industrial-grade H07RN-F rubber cable for maximum durability and safety.
