EV Type 2 to CEE 230 Volt 16A Socket Power Supply Converter (white)

Description

Type 2 to CEE 16A Power Converter Cable (Standard Length, IP44)

Power your outdoor adventures with this rugged converter cable — perfect for motorhome battery charging, e-bike power and camping use. Built to the highest standards by MotorCables.co.uk, it lets you safely access 230V mains power from a compatible Type 2 AC charge-point socket, subject to the operator’s permission and the charge point’s controls.

Key Features

• Durable Construction: Heavy-duty flexible cable designed for long-term outdoor use.
• Instant Power Conversion: Adapts a compatible Type 2 AC socket into a standard 16A (blue) 230V outlet.
• Safety Assured: IP44 splash-resistant connectors and integrated control electronics.
• Universal Compatibility: For compatible socketed Type 2 AC charge points. Charge-point controls and auxiliary-load restrictions can affect operation; this version is not for the end of a tethered cable.
• Easy Release: Does not lock into the socket — quick to remove after use.

How It Works

Plug the Type 2 connector into your EV charger or public charging post to access a single-phase 230V / 16A power supply. The blue CEE socket then provides a safe connection for devices like motorhome battery chargers, e-bike chargers, or portable appliances.

Why Choose This Adapter?

The Type 2 to CEE 16A Converter Cable is one of the most trusted ways to draw auxiliary power from EV charging stations across the UK and Europe. Built and tested in the UK, it provides consistent 230V performance for campers, tradespeople, and travellers. Tough, safe, and field-tested — that’s why we test them.

Note: This converter won’t function on the end of a tethered cable. For that setup, use our Type-2 → Schuko → CEE Converter Kit — the perfect IP44 workaround. It converts your Type-2 output to a Schuko socket, then pairs with our IP44 Schuko Fly Lead for complete splash-resistant protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Type 2 to CEE 16A cable charge a motorhome battery?

It can supply a compatible 230 V battery charger from a suitable Type 2 AC charge point. It does not directly charge a 12 V battery or regulate the charge point’s output voltage; observe the 16 A assembly limit and any lower supply limit.

Does this Type 2 to CEE 16A cable work on all EV charge posts?

Use only with a compatible Type 2 AC charge point and with the operator’s permission. Charge-point controls and auxiliary-load restrictions can affect operation.

Is the Type 2 to CEE 16A Power Converter Cable safe for outdoor use?

Yes — the IP44 rating protects from splashes and light rain. Avoid submersion or leaving connectors in standing water.

Can the Type 2 to CEE 16A cable be used on 3-phase chargers?

A compatible three-phase Type 2 AC charge point can provide a 230 V phase-to-neutral feed through this single-phase adapter. Do not exceed 16 A or the lower available current; it does not combine phases.

What appliances can this converter power?

Motorhome chargers, e-bike chargers, fridges, cool boxes and tools up to 3.6 kW — always check device ratings.

How do I connect UK plug appliances to this converter?

Simply pair it with our 16A CEE Plug to 13A UK Socket Converter to connect standard UK 3-pin devices safely.
