"Power Plug Adaptor 32A ➜ 16A": How to Use It Safely

For those using a 32A Portable charger who want to use it with a household socket that only supports 16A, using an adaptor (Adapter) is one option that makes it possible — but it must be used carefully and with the right knowledge for maximum safety.

An adaptor is not for permanent use

A 32A Power Plug adaptor is only a temporary current adaptor, suitable only for use in emergencies or when there is no 32A socket. Do not use it continuously on a regular basis, as heat may build up and become dangerous.

How to use an adaptor safely

Set the current appropriately before use

• The charger's current setting must not exceed 16A

Plug in firmly

• Avoid loose connections, as heat will build up and may cause burning

Choose an adaptor that meets standards

• Check that it is rated for 16A and made from heat-resistant materials

Inspect the equipment before every use

• The adaptor must show no burn marks, looseness or damage
• Replace it immediately if you find anything abnormal

EV Easy recommends:

Some EV Easy portable chargers (especially the 32A models) come with a safe adaptor plug that meets the CE standard, and the current can be set on the unit or via the app

• The current can be safely reduced from 32A to 16A
• Automatic power cut-off in the event of leakage or high temperature
• Use with confidence with a household socket or a dedicated 16A socket
