Electric car charging accessories

Wall holders for Type 2 or Type 1 connectors keep the charging gun off the ground and away from dirt, and some also have a cable hook. You can also hang the control unit of a portable charger on the wall. Store the cable in the boot in a zipped bag, which is waterproof and fire-resistant according to the manufacturer.

When charging outdoors, charging port covers protect the connection between car and connector from rain, snow and dust. Transparent covers let you check on charging, and the magnetic cover fits quickly onto the bodywork. Covers made of tough fabric protect the connector or an outdoor charger. Silicone caps protect the charging port on specific car models.

Connector locks stop unauthorised people from unplugging the cable. Outdoor type E/F sockets with a 16 A circuit breaker provide a separately protected connection point for a portable charger, but have them installed by an electrician, who will also provide 30 mA RCD protection. Before charging, check that no water has got under the cover.
