Title: Found a C13 plug that you can use for public charging stations
Post by: Erasmo on November 17, 2015, 03:29:08 PM: Hi all,

I've written around a bit and found a supplier near me that can produce cables that have on the charger side a L2 plug and on the motor side a C13(kettle plug) or a inlet for your own cable.
Inside the L2 plug is build in IEC 61851 support so you can use it at public charging stations to charge your bike.(and make a cup of tea while you're waiting if you bring a power strip :P)

Their price is â‚¬144 which includes shipping in the Netherlands, but if we order some together it will probably drop a bit.

So, who is interested?

Can they put on an IEC19 plug and/or leave bare wires (Live, Neutral, Ground) so we can add our own plug on the bike end?

Thanks

I'll ask but the plug shouldn't be a problem, it takes some extra time though because that plug needs to be ordered. Without plug on the vehicle side is of course an option.

Not with the kettle end, only with a schuko inlet. But you can wire pretty much anything on it what you want.

1 mennekes input (i suppose triphased 16A : 11kw) and 3x 16A monophased schuko !
With electronic inside to "discuss" with the power supply

Seem perfect to plug the onboard charger + 2 external chargers (Elcon 2500 ?)

Post by: madcow on May 25, 2017, 12:24:23 AM: If I'm not totally mistaken it's a standard product. They are delivered with and for certain EVs. I got mine as a Renault Twizzy cable. Costs around 190â‚¬ if you order it with an option to communicate with the station (which some require).
