YDCHARGE Type 2 AC Vehicle Charging Inlet
A professional-grade Type 2 AC vehicle inlet designed for single-phase and three-phase EV integration.
The YDCHARGE Type 2 AC vehicle inlet is developed for electric vehicle manufacturers, low-volume EV builders, retrofit projects, charging system integrators, and OEM/ODM vehicle charging programs. Designed in accordance with IEC 62196-2, it supports Mode 2 and Mode 3 AC charging, with selectable configurations for single-phase 16A / 32A and three-phase 16A / 32A, reaching up to 32A three-phase in the highest-rated version. Available in front-mount or rear-mount structure, with connector-only or cable-attached versions, it provides a flexible vehicle-side AC charging interface for passenger EVs, specialty vehicles, and electrification projects.
Broad AC Configuration
Supports single-phase and three-phase AC charging configurations, with versions covering 16A and 32A current classes for different vehicle platforms and charging architectures.
Integration Ready
Designed for vehicle installation, with front or rear mounting, M6 fixing structure, and optional pre-cabled versions for easier integration into OEM and conversion projects.
Durable & Protected
Built with protective cap, silver-plated contacts, and IP-rated housing, suitable for demanding automotive charging applications and long-term environmental exposure.
OEM/ODM Ready
Supports cable or no-cable configuration, custom cable length, and project-based adaptation for EV manufacturers, conversion specialists, and charging system developers.
YDCHARGE Type 2 AC Vehicle Charging Inlet
A professional-grade vehicle-side AC charging interface for OEM/ODM and retrofit integration.
The YDCHARGE Type 2 AC Vehicle Charging Inlet is a professional vehicle-side AC charging interface developed for electric vehicles, special-purpose EVs, retrofit platforms, low-volume vehicle manufacturing, and OEM/ODM integration projects. Designed for installation on the vehicle side, it provides a reliable AC charging connection compatible with Type 2 AC charging connectors and supports Mode 2 and Mode 3 charging applications.
This product is positioned as a vehicle charging inlet, not an infrastructure socket and not a complete charger. Its purpose is to provide a robust and standards-aligned AC charging entry point on the vehicle side for platforms using Type 2 AC charging architecture.
