Looking for a recommendation for a type 2 to 3 pin cable
For charging a transit phev


First phev on fleet and we have an outdoor 3 pin plug rated to iirc 32 amps. Transit I believe will charge at up to 16 amps

Don’t need anything longer than 5 meters and ideally want something that is not going to burst into flames hence not buying the first thing I find on google

Perhaps give us a clue or better still a photo, of what you mean by a 3-pin plug?

I would assume he means a standard UK Plug.

Just get the cheapest brand you’ve heard of. The Masterplug chargers are fine for example. We have one as a backup because it’s got a long cable.

Take a look at Tough Leads. I recently received exemplary service from them.

If it's a standard UK 13A plug then it certainly isn't rated for 32A

or even a continuous 13A...

If it is a 32A commando socket, you need something like this
