Length of Flexible Fast charger cable
Does anyone know the actual length of the cable from the EVSE control box to the J1772 plug? The description says 20 feet (6 meters). Or is the 20 feet from the wall plug adapter to the J1772 plug?
Also, does anyone know to OEM manufacturer of the EVSE? Thanks Wallyf |

Scaling Estimate of Flexible Fast Charger Length
I have scaled the length of different parts of the Flexible Fast Charger from the photos and diagram attached:
Mains Adapter Cable (MAC)(#1) is 9.5' or 240mm In-Cable Control Box (ICCB) (#6) is 10.8" or 275mm Vehicle Connector (VC) (#8) is 13.8" or 350 mm Cable from ICCB to VC is 235" or 5957mm based on 4.5 turns of diameter of 16.6" So, I calculate the total length from the MAC to the VC as 6.824 meters. The length of the cable with the VC as I calculated is 6.31m meters. BMW says 6 meters so I am close. if the number of turns is not quite 4.5(as I guessed), the 6 meters is OK. Wallyf |
