OLINK EVSE's Guide to EV Extension Cords

OLINK EVSE, tailored to customer needs and market demands, proudly presents its range of four EV Extension Cords: J1772/Type1, Type2, GB/T, and Tesla. Designed to boost your tethered charger’s range, these cords are an indispensable accessory for every electric vehicle owner.

Understanding the EV Charger Extension Cord

Unlike portable EV chargers laden with advanced technical features, including communication protocols, our EV extension cords are straightforward in design. They're simply designed to extend, not charge. For charging your EV, you'd still require an appropriate portable or stationary EV charger.

Choosing the Right EV Charging Extension Cable

Selecting the correct extension cable is paramount for an efficient charging experience. Always opt for EV-specific extension cords to ensure the high power compatibility required for charging. Remember:For Level 1 charging (120 volts), a standard extension will suffice. Level 2 charging (240 volts) demands a heavy-duty cord rated at least 15 amps. Level 3 (480 volts) requires a high voltage-tolerant cord. If in doubt, always consult a qualified electrician.

Versatile Charging with Extended Reach

Thanks to our extension cords, access charging posts with unparalleled flexibility—be it at the workplace, office, residential areas, or parking lots.

Safety First: What You Must Know ⚠️

Always match your extension cable with your charger. Mismatching is not just unsafe but can void your EV or charger's warranty. EV charging demands a power threshold often higher than household appliances. While some might venture using a regular extension cord, experts advise against it. Numerous automakers, including Chevrolet, Kia, and more, caution against extension cord usage in their manuals due to the potential risks involved.
