The cable must not be repaired or spliced as this can affect its safety and function. The cable is made of a TPE material that provides good resistance to oil, abrasion, and UV light. The cable is also flexible in cold temperatures. The Type 2 socket is now the EU standard, and cars from manufacturers such as AUDI, BMW, Hyundai, KIA, Mercedes, Porsche, Seat, Skoda, Tesla, Volkswagen, Volvo all use the Type 2 socket.

Charging of the car is monitored through two-way communication between the car and the charger. When the cable is connected to the car, a self-test is performed to ensure that the cable is correctly connected and that the car is ready to receive power before charging begins and the cable is energized. The connectors are mechanically locked during charging, protecting against both theft and unauthorized use. After charging, unlock the car so the mechanical lock opens, and remove the charging cable from the car's side first so it is disconnected by the charger.
