Type 1 (J1772) Charging Solutions: Essential for Your EV or PHEV

Does your electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid (PHEV) have a Type 1 (J1772) charging port ? Then you've come to the right place! Although Type 2 (Mennekes) has become the standard in Europe, there are still many popular models on the road, such as the Nissan Leaf , Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV , Opel Ampera , and older Renault Kangoo ZE models, that use a Type 1 connection for AC charging.

At Accu-Machine.nl, we understand that you need the right charging solutions for your specific vehicle. That's why we offer a complete collection of Type 1 charging cables and Type 1 home chargers that are perfectly compatible with your car. Ensure your EV or PHEV is always optimally charged, wherever you are.

What is Type 1 (J1772) and Why is it Relevant?

The Type 1 plug , also known as SAE J1772 , is a charging standard common on electric vehicles primarily from Asia and North America, and on previous generations of EVs and PHEVs sold in Europe. While new cars in Europe almost exclusively use Type 2 for AC charging, the Type 1 connection remains crucial for thousands of existing cars.

• Broad Compatibility: If your car has a Type 1 connection, the products in this category are essential for you.
• AC Charging: Type 1 is designed for alternating current (AC) charging and usually supports single-phase charging.
• Safety: Like other charging standards, the Type 1 connector is designed with safety protocols to ensure a controlled power flow.

It is important to know that in Europe, where the public charging infrastructure consists almost exclusively of Type 2 charging stations , you will need an adapter cable to connect your Type 1 car.

Type 1 Charging Cables: Your Essential Connection on the Go

A reliable Type 1 charging cable is essential for charging your car at public charging stations. Since most public charging stations in Europe have a Type 2 connection , the most common cable in this category is a Type 1 to Type 2 charging cable .

• Universal Application: Our Type 1 to Type 2 charging cables bridge the standard and ensure that your car can connect to any Type 2 charging station in Europe.
• Optimal Charging Speed: These cables are designed to support your car's maximum AC charging speed, typically up to 3.7 kW (1-phase, 16 A) or 6.6 kW (1-phase, 32 A) . Always check your car's specifications (such as the amp or kW rating of your onboard charger) to choose the most efficient cable.
• Robust and Durable: Our charging cables are made of high-quality materials that can withstand all weather conditions, UV rays, and daily use, ensuring a long lifespan.
• Various Lengths: Choose the cable thickness and length that best suits your needs (e.g. 5 meters, 7.5 meters) for maximum charging flexibility.
• Handy Accessories: Complete your charging cable with a matching storage pouch for neatness and protection, or a cable holder for a tidy charging space.
