Description
Type 2 EV charger replacement cable — for tethered wallboxes where the fixed cable is damaged, worn, too short, or simply needs upgrading. Type 2 plug on the vehicle side, open-ended on the charger side for a hard-wired installation inside the wallbox.
Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, with a durable PUR jacket, a robust connector and an IP55-rated coupling. This is a professional replacement lead that must be installed by a qualified electrician. Always isolate the charger before any work.
Single phase vs 3-phase — what you actually need
In the UK, almost all home chargers are single phase, typically up to 7kW. 3-phase installs are usually found at workplaces or commercial sites and can deliver higher power — 11kW or 22kW depending on the current.
Use the chart below to choose the correct variation. If you’re unsure, send a photo of your wallbox label or installation details and we’ll steer you to the right option.
Selection chart
| Variation | Phase | Max power | Typical use | Best choice for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7kW single phase | 1-phase | up to 7kW | Most home wallboxes | Home installs on a normal single-phase supply |
| 11kW 3-phase (16A) | 3-phase | up to 11kW | Workplaces / 3-phase installs | 3-phase site, 16A per phase |

FAQs
Which Type 2 tethered replacement cable is correct for a typical UK home EV charger?
Most UK home wallboxes are single phase, so the 7kW single-phase replacement cable is usually correct. Choose 11kW or 22kW only if your installation is confirmed 3-phase.
What is the difference between 11kW and 22kW 3-phase EV charger replacement cables?
Both are 3-phase, but 11kW is typically 16A per phase and 22kW is typically 32A per phase. Your wallbox, supply and vehicle must support the higher current for 22kW.
Do open-ended Type 2 replacement EV cables need a qualified electrician to install?
Yes. Any open-ended cable must only be installed by a qualified electrician following the charger manufacturer’s wiring instructions and safe isolation procedures.
Which cable length should I choose for a tethered EV charger replacement lead?
7.5m suits close parking bays, 10m suits most driveways, and 15m is ideal for longer reach or awkward parking positions.
What is the lead time for MotorCables Type 2 tethered charger replacement cables?
This is a special order item with a typical lead time of around one week.
