GB/T AC EV Charging Inlet

Technical Specifications

AC Charging Receptacle | B2B OEM/Wholesale Supply for EV & Charger Makers

Product Overview

The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi is a female charging receptacle designed to the IEC 62196-2 Type 2 (Mennekes) interface, used either as a vehicle-side inlet on electric vehicles or as a fixed socket outlet on AC charging stations and wallboxes. As a specialized EV charging inlet manufacturer, we produce this Type 2 socket outlet with precision-machined contacts, a robust housing, and integrated pilot/proximity pins, built to mate reliably with any Type 2 plug conforming to the same standard. For EV socket inlet wholesale buyers—including EV OEMs, aftermarket retrofit kit builders, and AC charger manufacturers—this product is a standardized component rather than a complete charging system.

Standard & Interface Compliance

The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi is designed in accordance with the IEC 62196-2 Type 2 interface, the dominant AC charging connector standard across Europe and many other markets. It includes the standard configuration of three power contacts (L, N, PE) plus control pilot (CP) and proximity detection (PP) pins, and is keyed to prevent mating with non-compliant connectors. As a Type 2 inlet supplier, we produce the receptacle to the Type 2 dimensional and pinout requirements so that it mates correctly with standard Type 2 plugs from charging cables and portable chargers. For IEC 62196-2 Type 2 connector buyers, this standard-compatible design simplifies certification and avoids custom-pin compatibility issues.

Electrical Ratings

The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi is offered in common AC current ratings up to 32A (single-phase and three-phase variants available), with rated voltage matching the Type 2 interface up to 480V AC and a maximum power rating suited to typical residential and commercial AC charging. Silver-plated or tin-plated contacts are selected per current rating to keep contact resistance stable over repeated mating cycles. As a 32A Type 2 socket manufacturer, we recommend that buyers match the inlet rating to their cable, breaker, and on-board charger configuration rather than selecting the highest rating regardless of system design. This component-level rating awareness is important for AC charging inlet buyers building complete charging assemblies.

Mechanical & Enclosure Design

The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi features a heat-resistant engineering-plastic housing with an integrated latch mechanism, a spring-loaded protective cap (on vehicle-inlet variants), and mounting flange patterns that fit common wallbox and vehicle panel cutouts. The internal contact carrier isolates power pins from signal pins, and the housing is rated for outdoor exposure when used on wallbox sockets. As an EV charging socket manufacturer, we supply the inlet with standard mounting hardware and optional cable gland orientations. For wallbox inlet socket buyers and onboard charging inlet retrofit builders, the flange dimensions and cable exit direction are the key mechanical parameters to confirm before sampling.

Installation & Applications

The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi is used across two main application families: as a vehicle inlet on BEV and PHEV models built for the European market, and as a fixed socket outlet on AC wallboxes and public AC charging posts that use a separate plug-and-cable. It is also a common replacement part for damaged inlets on existing vehicles and wallboxes. As a Type 2 receptacle supplier, we support EV OEMs, charging pile manufacturers, retrofit shops, and maintenance depots. For EV inlet OEM programs, the inlet is typically delivered as a component ready for integration into the vehicle or wallbox assembly line, not as a field-installable standalone product.

OEM / Customization & Batch Supply

We offer EV socket inlet OEM services for customers who require tailored housing geometry, cable exit direction, contact plating, or wiring harness integration. The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi can be supplied as a bare receptacle, a pigtail with flying leads, or a pre-terminated harness matching specific vehicle or wallbox mounting requirements. Our Type 2 female socket production supports both sample quantities for engineering validation and batch quantities for production programs. As an EV charging socket assembly supplier, we provide dimensional drawings, pinout documentation, and incoming-inspection reports so that buyer engineering teams can integrate the part into their own BOM with minimal reverse-engineering effort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this inlet used on the vehicle or on the wallbox? The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi can be used in both positions: as a vehicle-side inlet on EVs/PHEVs, or as a fixed socket outlet on an AC wallbox or charging post that mates with a separate Type 2 plug. Specify your intended application when ordering so we can confirm the correct flange, cap, and cable-exit variant. As a Type 2 inlet supplier, we do not sell this as a completed charger.

Q: Does this inlet include charging electronics or control? No. The IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi is a passive connector receptacle. It carries power and CP/PP signal contacts but contains no control board, no protection circuitry, and no charging management. Those functions reside in the vehicle’s on-board charger and the upstream charging station. For complete AC wallboxes, please refer to our wallbox product line.

Q: What current rating should I choose? Match the inlet rating to your planned system: 16A is typical for single-phase home installations, while 32A is common for three-phase home and commercial AC charging. As an EV charging socket manufacturer, we recommend sizing contacts, cables, and breakers as a system rather than uprating the inlet alone.

Q: Do you supply pre-wired harnesses? Yes. Beyond the bare receptacle, we can supply the IEC 62196-2 Tip 2 Avrupa Standardı Elektrikli Araç Şarj Soketi Girişi with flying leads or a pre-terminated pigtail to match a specific wallbox or vehicle harness requirement. Contact our EV socket inlet wholesale sales team for harness drawings and minimum order quantities.
