An AC extension cable for an EV is a cable that extends the reach of your charging setup, connecting your existing charging station or portable charger to your vehicle. These cables are available for different charging standards like Type 2 (IEC 62196-2), SAE J1772 (North America), and GBT (China), and come in various lengths, amperages (e.g., 16A, 32A), and voltage ratings, often with durable, weatherproof designs. 

• The extension cable connects to your existing AC charger's cable or a public charging station.
• It then plugs into your electric vehicle's charging port, allowing you to charge from a greater distance.
• They are designed to maintain a secure and safe connection throughout the charging process. 

• Connector Type: Ensure the cable matches your EV and your charging station. Common types include Type 2 (for Europe and many other regions), SAE J1772 (for North America), and GBT (for China).

• Amperage and Voltage: Choose a cable with a compatible amperage and voltage rating (e.g., 16A or 32A, 220V-480V) for your specific charger and EV to ensure safe and efficient power delivery.

• Length: Cables come in various lengths (e.g., 5m, 7m, 10m, 20ft) to provide the flexibility you need to reach a charging spot.

• Durability: Look for features like a robust shell (e.g., high-strength ABS), secure locking mechanisms, and high IP ratings (e.g., IP55, IP66) for water and dust resistance.

• Safety: Many cables are designed with high-quality materials and internal insulation to prevent overheating and ensure reliability, with some certified to withstand over 10,000 plug-in cycles
