Efapel Reinforced EV Charging Socket

Description

Efapel Surface-Mount Socket 81751 – EV Charging. Brand new, never used. It is an excellent intermediate solution between a conventional domestic socket (Schuko) and a wallbox. Unlike a standard socket—which was not designed to handle high currents continuously for 8 or 10 hours—the Efapel EV socket features reinforced contacts that provide better heat management and durability. While a standard socket must be limited (for safety) to approximately 8 A or 10 A, the Efapel EV socket often allows continuous charging at 14 A or 16 A (approximately 3.2 kW to 3.7 kW), depending on the installation and the charging cable used. This can reduce charging time by up to 30–40% compared to a standard socket.
