Hybrid and electric vehicle charging be it for Europe, North America and Japan or China markets AC or combined charging system (CCS) we now offer an extensive charging system enabling smaster, faster and safe charging that support the evolution of the powertrain. With proven experience in automotive connectivity systems and high-voltage applications, TE Connectivity actively drives green mobility and the supporting infrastructure.
AMP+ Charging Cables
Just like those for electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid batteries can be recharged externally.
TE's next generation charging cables are specifically designed to meet DIN EN 61851.
Type 2 vehicle connector additionally meets IEC 62196. These standards define several types of on-board vehicle interfaces: type 1 for North America and Japan and type 2 for Europe with two charging modes at a wall power outlet or on high-performance charging stations.
