Charging power and cables FAQ

Power and cable choices, explained. The defaults are drawn for a charger that gets used every day, by hand, in front of the building. Spec sheets matter. So does the weight of the plug.

What is the maximum charging power of the integrated cable on Veton?

The default integrated cable on Veton® One, Veton® Two (plug) and Veton® Wall Plus is a 20 A three-phase coiled cable. On a 3×400 V installation, that delivers up to 13.8 kW. It reaches about 4 metres from the charger, and the charging gun sits behind a flush door when not in use.

Why doesn’t Veton use a 32 A, 22 kW integrated cable by default?

A 32 A three-phase cable is heavier and stiffer than a 20 A one. For a driver who plugs in by hand every evening, that weight matters more than the number on the spec sheet. Most EVs accept no more than 11 kW on AC charging anyway, so a 22 kW cable rarely delivers more useful power than a 13.8 kW one. At 13.8 kW, a typical battery is full by morning.

Can I still get 22 kW with Veton?

Yes. All Veton® chargers with sockets — Veton® Two (socket), Veton® Two (base) and the socket versions of Wall and Wall Plus — deliver 22 kW per socket on a 3×400 V installation. The driver supplies a Type 2 cable. For 22 kW on an integrated cable, Veton® Wall Plus is also available with a straight 32 A three-phase cable on request. Veton® One and Veton® Two (plug) keep the 20 A coiled cable as the integrated option, with a 32 A monophase cable on request for monophase or 3×230 V sites.

What about monophase or 3×230 V installations?

For a site on monophase or 3×230 V rather than 3×400 V, specify the 32 A monophase cable on request. On a suitable installation, it reaches a similar real-world charging speed as the default 20 A three-phase cable, without the bottleneck of a low-amp monophase setup.

What cable options are available on Wall Plus?

Veton® Wall Plus ships by default with the same 20 A three-phase coiled cable as Veton® One. About 4 metres of reach, 13.8 kW on 3×400 V. For longer runs or a different power profile, Wall Plus is also available with straight cables in various lengths and amperages, including 32 A monophase and 32 A three-phase.

How does Veton’s cable choice affect everyday use?

The 20 A coiled cable handles with one hand. The charging gun retracts behind a flush door, and the cable reaches about 4 metres. At 13.8 kW, that covers a typical residential or hospitality charge overnight, without the weight of a 32 A cable. A charger that is visible from the front door should also be easy to use from it.

Which configuration is right for my project?

• Single residential car, 3×400 V — default 20 A coiled cable, 13.8 kW. Full overnight charge, light in the hand.
• Multi-vehicle household or fleet, AC-only EVs at 22 kW — socket models (Veton® Two, Wall socket) at 22 kW, with the driver’s own Type 2 cable.
• Monophase or 3×230 V supply — 32 A monophase cable on request.
• Hotel forecourt or guest parking — default 13.8 kW coiled cable, easy to handle for first-time users.
• 22 kW on an integrated cable — Veton® Wall Plus with the 32 A three-phase straight cable on request.
