YDCHARGE CCS2 to CCS1 DC Charging Adapter FAQs

B2B OEM ODM Frequently Asked Questions

 

A. Product Positioning and Application

Q1. What is this CCS2 to CCS1 adapter used for?
It allows CCS1 vehicles to charge from CCS2 DC charging stations. CCS1 and CCS2 are two physical variants of the Combined Charging System used in different global regions.
Q2. Is this product a cable or an adapter?
This product is defined as an adapter. It serves as an interface bridge rather than a full charging cable assembly.
Q3. What is the input and output of this adapter?
The adapter utilizes CCS2 DC as the station side input and CCS1 DC as the vehicle side output interface.
Q4. Is this suitable for public charging station use?
Yes. It is especially suitable for public DC charging access where CCS2 stations are available but the target vehicle uses a CCS1 inlet.
