You receive such a cable when you buy your electric car. The cable has an EV connector and a plug as you are used to. The cable also has an ICCB (In-Cable Control Box) or IC-CPD (In-Cable Control- and Protecting Device) with built-in current limitation. The IC-CPD contains the security that is otherwise in the charge point and, just like a charge point, this box can exchange information with your electric or hybrid car.
With an average household socket, the charging current must be limited to 10A. Due to this limitation to 10A, the maximum charging capacity is 2.3 kW.
