Buy PC Electric products in the PV-24 online shop

PV-24 currently lists exactly one item from PC Electric: the coiled Type 2 charging cable with 11 kW for €259. Since it is in stock in Zell am Ziller, it is ready for immediate shipment. The same manufacturer is also known as PCE Electric in wholesale markets.

Not every product line is listed online. We can procure PCE products not listed here upon request , from construction site power distribution boxes to wall-mounted charging stations. Send us the model number and quantity, and we will clarify availability, delivery time, and price. Why not order directly from the manufacturer? PC Electric sells through specialist retailers. With us, you receive a binding confirmation instead of just a product number.

Charging solutions for electric vehicles from the PCE program

This cable features a Type 2 connector at both ends, on the vehicle side and the infrastructure side. The PC Electric cable operates in charging mode 3, the standard for AC charging according to IEC 61851. With a nominal current of 20 A and a nominal voltage of 480 V, it transmits up to 11 kW three-phase power. This covers the full charging capacity of a vehicle with an 11 kW onboard charger. The vehicle and charging point use the control pilot wire to negotiate the permissible current before charging begins. Only then does the station release the power, which is why a defective cable won't even start charging.

The coiled design automatically retracts after charging. The type of charging station is irrelevant for the PCE cable. It fits any Type 2 socket, whether on the wallboxes from our range or on public charging stations. At 5 meters long, it can even reach charging points that are inconveniently located relative to the charging port. Longer versions and models from other brands are available in the Type 2 charging cable category.

Correctly assess protection types and load-bearing capacity

How tight does such a connector actually need to be? The cable has an IP54 rating according to EN 60529 , meaning it is dustproof and resistant to splashing water from all directions. The first digit in the IP code describes protection against solid objects, the second against water. The PC Electric version is sufficient for carports, garages, or open parking spaces.

The situation changes as soon as the plug is regularly submerged in a puddle or exposed to a pressure washer. Higher protection ratings like IP67 are designed for such situations. Prolonged exposure to moisture in the contact area reduces the lifespan more than an additional plugging and unplugging cycle per day. PC Electric is familiar with this concept of continuous load from its experience in the construction industry, where distribution boxes and plugs withstand dust, drafts, and rain.

The rated current of 20 A describes what the cable can handle continuously, not what your vehicle draws. The charging power is always limited by the weakest link , usually the onboard charger in the car. If a charging station provides 22 kW, but the vehicle only accepts 11 kW, a thicker cable won't change that. Adapters, cable holders, and residual current circuit breakers can be found under E-Mobility Accessories.

Advice on PC Electric products via telephone and WhatsApp

You can reach us directly by phone on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. Matthias Schiestl and his team can also answer your questions about PC Electric via WhatsApp or the chat on this page. For a reliable answer, we need three pieces of information: vehicle model, connection at the parking space, and the desired cable length. Your electrician will ultimately assess on-site whether the existing circuit breaker can handle the continuous current.

As a PCE dealer, we handle warranty claims directly with the manufacturer. Once we have the fault description and invoice number, we take care of the rest. The full manufacturer's warranty applies regardless of whether you are ordering for private or commercial purposes. Electrical contractors and installers should request the tiered B2B pricing for PC Electric products, specifying the required quantity.

What the PCE Shop currently offers can be seen in the product list above. This list grows with the needs of our customers, not with the manufacturer's catalog. Since our founding in 2022, we have served over 5.000 customers with more than 10.000 orders. At checkout, you also benefit from Trusted Shops buyer protection.
