EVM-1 polyurethane outer jacket resists driveway gravel abrasion, tyre drive-over and oil stains.
Product
H05BZ5-F is the harmonized European light-duty AC electric vehicle charging cable per BS EN 50620 and IEC 62893-2 (62893 IEC 121). Rated 300/500 V for Mode 1, Mode 2 (IC-CPD portable cords) and compact Mode 3 home wallboxes up to 16 A / 20 A (3.7 kW single-pha
Typical values for this cable type, based on EN 50620 / IEC 62893-2 — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Engineered for portable Mode 2 In-Cable Control and Protection Device (IC-CPD) chargers, residential Mode 3 Type 1 / Type 2 tethered wallboxes (3.7 kW / 7.4 kW / 11 kW) and lightweight straight or spiral EV trunk cords.
EVM-1 polyurethane outer jacket resists driveway gravel abrasion, tyre drive-over and oil stains.
300/500 V reduced wall thickness yields a lightweight, easy-coiling cord for daily home charging.
Suitable for spiral/coiled EV cords and wallbox holsters.
For 32 A / 63 A (7.4 kW / 22 kW / 43 kW) heavy public charging bollards specify 450/750 V H07BZ5-F.
