Type 2 to Type 1 EV Adapter — Charge Type 1 EVs at Type 2 Stations
The Type 2 to Type 1 EV Adapter (IEC 62196-2 to SAE J1772) lets Type 1 electric vehicles charge at any Type 2 AC charging station in Australia — CE and TÜV certified, rated to 32A for full-speed single-phase AC charging. The Type 2 inlet connects to the station cable; the Type 1 outlet connects to your EV's J1772 charge port. Australia's entire public AC network is Type 2 — this adapter opens all of it to Type 1 EV owners.
This adapter is compatible with all Type 1 (SAE J1772) electric vehicles in Australia, including Nissan Leaf (all generations), Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross PHEV, and Holden Volt. Works at any Type 2 (IEC 62196) public AC charger across Australia — Chargefox, Evie Networks, NRMA EV, shopping centre chargers, home wallboxes, and Tesla Destination Chargers. Charging speed is limited by your vehicle's onboard charger; this adapter is rated to 32A, exceeding the maximum AC input of all current Type 1 vehicles in Australia.
CE and TÜV certification confirms independent testing for electrical safety, heat resistance under sustained load, and connector retention integrity. Weatherproof construction handles outdoor charging stations in Australian conditions. Compact and lightweight — keeps in your glovebox or charging bag permanently.
