This adapter is the DC bridge between two connector families that European charging sites mix every day: the CCS2 gun on the charger and the Type 2 inlet on the car. One face takes the station's CCS2 plug, the other pushes into the vehicle inlet, and a push-on cap covers the contact faces while the unit is riding in the glovebox. There is nothing to set up — no app, no firmware, no switch. The car and the post run the session they always run, with the adapter sitting between them.
It matters because the network and the cars do not match. A site built around CCS2 DC posts is the European norm for fast charging, while plenty of cars on the road still carry a Type 2 inlet — Tesla Model S, Model X, Model 3 and Model Y among them, plus other Type 2 electric vehicles whose inlets accept DC over the Type 2 pins. Without a part like this, those drivers hunt for a compatible post or drive past the site entirely. With it, an operator serves both connector families from the same hardware, and a distributor can answer the question every Type 2 owner asks — can I use your chargers? — without placing a special order.
The body is a compact T-shaped housing in matte black, light enough to live in the car permanently, and the contact set is built for continuous DC fast charging rather than occasional use. This ev charger adapter is built for the European market, where CCS2 stations and Type 2 vehicles meet most often.

The adapter works in one direction only: CCS2 charger, then adapter, then Type 2 vehicle inlet. The station side is the CCS2 DC gun used across European DC networks; the vehicle side is the Type 2 inlet, and the car has to be one that accepts DC over those pins. Two photographs settle the question — the inside of the car's inlet and the end of the station's cable — and we confirm the fit from those before you commit to a batch.
It is a DC part and nothing else. A Type 2 AC post at a hotel, office or car park does not energise these pins, so this ev charger adapter has no job there and should not be forced on; AC charging runs through an AC cable or an AC adapter built for that purpose.
Those AC parts are a separate family. A j1772 to tesla adapter, for example, moves AC between a J1772 gun and a NACS inlet; it will not help at a CCS2 DC post any more than this adapter will help at an AC post. The opposite DC case is a different unit as well: a US-market Tesla charging at a European Type 2 DC post needs a Type 2 to NACS DC adapter, not this one. Match the part to the connector on the car and the connector on the charger, not to the badge on the bonnet.
Power is decided by the lowest of three things: what the station can deliver, what the vehicle will accept, and what this adapter is rated for. An adapter never adds power to a session — a 150 kW post does not become a 150 kW charge for a car that accepts less, and the adapter's own ceiling is listed in the specification table above. Read the car's charge curve rather than the post's headline number when you plan how long a stop will take.
The DC voltage rating suits 400 V-class battery packs, which is what most Type 2 vehicles on European roads run. If your vehicle uses a higher-voltage architecture, tell us the model before you order and we will confirm whether the combination is supported, instead of leaving you to find out at the post. On the station side, check that the connector really is CCS2 — not CCS1 and not GB/T — which is usually only a question at sites running imported or mixed-standard hardware.
We are a trading company rather than a manufacturer, and what we put behind every order is the supplier network we work with: we match your specification, certification and target-market requirements to the right partner factory, then consolidate the full order into one shipment so you deal with a single contact from quotation to arrival. That structure also lets us act as your second supplier when you want to reduce dependence on a single source. Sourcing, pre-shipment inspection, OEM and private-label coordination, export documentation and after-sales follow-up all sit with our team.
No. The station side of this adapter is CCS2 only, the connector used on European DC networks. A CCS1 post or a GB/T DC post has a different gun and will not mate; forcing it risks damaging the pins on both sides. If you operate mixed-standard hardware, tell us which connector types are on site and we will point you to the right part for each one.
No, they belong to different worlds. A tesla to j1772 adapter works on the AC side, moving an AC charge between a J1772 connector and a NACS inlet. This adapter carries DC between a CCS2 charger and a Type 2 vehicle inlet. The two look similar in photographs, so check the connector on the car and the connector on the charger before ordering, and ask us if the two do not obviously line up.
No. AC posts supply alternating current and this unit is a DC part, so the session will not start and the connectors should not be forced together. AC charging needs the cable your car takes, or an AC adapter made for that exact combination — a j1772 to tesla adapter, for example, where a J1772 post meets a NACS inlet. Treat AC and DC as two separate purchases.
Shake the adapter out, wipe the faces with a dry cloth, and only then mate it to the car and the gun. The seal works once both ends are latched, so a wet night is not a problem in itself. If a session will not start after heavy rain, dry both faces and retry before assuming a fault in the car or the post.
The locking design is rated for 20,000 insertions, which is far beyond what a private car will ever do but relevant if the adapter is shared at a site. On any adapter the contact face is the part that shows wear first: keep the cap on between sessions, avoid dropping the unit onto the pins, and have a look at both faces periodically at a busy location.
No. The adapter has no electronics, no pairing and no settings, so the vehicle and the post run their normal session through it. If the charge point asks for authentication or payment, you do that exactly as you would without the adapter in place.
