This cable exists for the houses where the electrician put the unit where the consumer unit was, not where the car goes, and for flats and courtyards where the nearest post is two spaces away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also the cable that stops a second installation being necessary. A wall box moved or a second unit fitted runs into four figures once the work is done. A longer lead costs a fraction of that and can go in the boot when you move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it gives you at home\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 32A on a single phase supply this cable carries 7.4 kW, and 7.4 kW is the ceiling for almost every British house regardless of what the car is rated for. British homes are supplied with one phase, so an 11 kW or 22 kW car rating lands at 7.4 kW on the driveway. This cable is not the limit, the supply is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower drawn at home\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 40 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 60 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 80 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange added per hour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20m Type 2 to Type 2, 32A single phase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.4 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 hours 15 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 hours 15 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 26 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHours are worked from battery size against power drawn, plus a 13 per cent allowance for what is lost as heat, rounded to fifteen minutes. Range added per hour assumes a year round 3.5 miles per kWh rather than a best case figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHandling a cable this long\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwenty metres of 32A cable has weight to it, so give some thought to where it lives. A wall bracket by the charger keeps it off the floor and stops the ends being dragged across gravel. Coil it in loose loops rather than tight turns, and uncoil the length you need rather than charging through a tight bundle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf the run crosses a path, a rubber cable protector is worth the ten pounds it costs. It is also worth checking the car park rules where you park, since some managed sites have their own view on cables crossing walkways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it is built\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade to IEC 62196-2, CE marked, and rated IP55 from -30C to +50C so it lives outdoors all year. Backed by a two year manufacturer's warranty, with free next working day delivery and a 30 day return window. Free next working day UK delivery, and a 30 day return if twenty metres turns out to be more than you needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"evp-see-also\"\u003eSee also: \u003ca href=\"\/products\/15m-ev-charging-cables\"\u003e15m charging cable\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/10m-ev-charging-cables\"\u003e10m charging cable\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/type-2-to-type-2-ev-extension-cable\"\u003eextension cable\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/universal-ev-charging-cables\"\u003eall universal cables\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e20m charging cable questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill twenty metres cost me charging speed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot measurably.

Beyond that the weight and the coiling become the problem rather than the electrics.

A 7 kW or 7.4 kW home wall box is a 32A single phase unit and this cable is rated for exactly that. It also works on 16A chargers and on public Type 2 posts, which are the same connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it in the rain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is IP55 rated and built for outdoor use between -30C and +50C.
