Type 2 to GB/T EV Charging Adapter — 16A/32A (International Use)

The Type 2 to GB/T EV Charging Adapter enables Type 2 (IEC 62196) electric vehicles to charge at GB/T charging stations — China's national EV charging standard. Rated to 16A and 32A AC, compact at 0.5m length and 0.8kg, designed for Australian EV owners travelling to China or other markets where GB/T is the standard charging connector.

This adapter is compatible with all Type 2 (IEC 62196-2) EVs including Tesla Model 3, Tesla Model Y (via a NACS to Type 2 adapter), BYD Atto 3, BYD Seal, Polestar 2, MG ZS EV, Hyundai IONIQ 5, Hyundai IONIQ 6, Kia EV6, Audi e-tron, and BMW iX. The Type 2 inlet connects to your EV; the GB/T connector plugs into the Chinese charging station. Operating range of -30°C to +50°C covers the full range of Asian climate conditions.

Important note for Australian buyers: GB/T charging stations are not available in Australia or New Zealand. This adapter is intended for international travel, primarily in China and parts of Asia where GB/T is the national AC charging standard. If you are charging in Australia, a standard Type 2 to Type 2 cable is what you need instead.

Charging in Australia instead? See the Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable. For Type 1 vehicles travelling abroad, see the Type 1 to GB/T adapter. Browse the full EV charger adapter range at Tes Accessories.

Q: What is a Type 2 to GB/T adapter and who needs it?

A: This adapter connects a Type 2 (IEC 62196-2) EV to a GB/T charging station. GB/T is China's national EV charging standard and is found at public and destination chargers throughout China and parts of Asia. Australian EV owners with Type 2 vehicles who are travelling to China need this adapter to access local charging infrastructure.

Q: Can I use this adapter in Australia?

A: GB/T charging stations are not available in Australia or New Zealand. This adapter is for international use — primarily in China and Asia-Pacific markets where GB/T is the standard. For charging in Australia, a Type 2 to Type 2 cable is the correct choice for most public AC chargers.

Q: Is this adapter suitable for a road trip through China with an Australian EV?

A: Yes. This adapter allows any Type 2 EV to access China's extensive GB/T AC charging network. The 0.5m compact design fits in luggage, and the -30°C to +50°C operating range covers all Chinese climate conditions from northern winters to southern summers.
