London is currently leading the global transition toward zero-emission urban mobility. Supported by ambitious local government policies such as the expansion of the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and the Mayor of London's commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2030, the demand for reliable, high-performance electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure has surged exponentially. From the iconic electric black cabs and double-decker buses to commercial delivery fleets operating within the M25 ring road, the requirement for robust EV charging components is more critical than ever.
Operating in London's notoriously damp maritime climate requires EV charging guns and cables with superior weatherproofing. Our OEM EV charging guns feature IP67 and IP55 ratings, ensuring long-term durability, safe insulation, and consistent performance during continuous outdoor exposure in public charging stations across London boroughs.
The UK capital relies heavily on standardized, ultra-reliable connection interfaces. Under the IEC 62196 standard, Type 2 AC charging is the norm for residential and destination chargers, while CCS2 (Combined Charging System Combo 2) dominates the DC fast-charging highway networks and commercial hubs. As a specialized OEM manufacturer, we design and produce charging guns that strictly comply with British Standards (BS EN 62196) and European CE directives. This ensures seamless integration with major UK networks such as BP Pulse, Source London, and Shell Recharge.
In addition to passenger cars, commercial vehicle fleets in London—including last-mile delivery vans and logistics trucks—are electrifying at an unprecedented rate. Fleet depots require heavy-duty charging configurations that can withstand multiple plug-in cycles daily. Our custom manufacturing capabilities allow us to supply high-current charging connectors with advanced thermal monitoring systems, preventing overheating during overnight rapid charging cycles. By providing custom cable lengths, custom branding, and specialized ergonomics, we empower London businesses to transition smoothly to green energy.

Developing EV charging products for London requires a deep understanding of local electrical standards, consumer behavior, and architectural constraints. Our engineering team prioritizes safety, durability, and user experience in every charging gun and cable we manufacture.
The vast majority of residential homes in London operate on a single-phase electricity supply (230V), which limits standard wallbox installations to 7.4 kW (32A). However, modern commercial buildings, multi-tenant parking garages, and public transport depots are typically equipped with three-phase power, enabling charging speeds of 11 kW or 22 kW. Our Type 2 to Type 2 EV Charging Cables support both single-phase and three-phase configurations, making them versatile assets for London property developers and fleet managers.
London averages over 100 rainy days per year. EV charging stations are constantly exposed to moisture, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. Sanco charging guns are engineered with double-chamber cavities to isolate active terminals from dust and moisture. With an IP67 rating for connector heads and IP55 for mated connections, our hardware operates flawlessly under heavy rain, sleet, or snow, reducing downtime and maintenance costs for operators.
For London's busy taxi drivers and logistics operators, charging time is a critical factor. The transition to ultra-fast DC hubs across the city requires robust charging cables capable of handling high currents safely. Our CCS2 DC Charging Connectors support current ratings from 10A up to 250A. Utilizing advanced silver-plated copper alloy pins and high-grade TPU cable insulation, they deliver minimal contact resistance and optimal thermal dissipation during high-power charging sessions.
The UK government mandates that all new home and workplace chargers must feature smart functionality. Our OEM designs can be integrated with communication pins (Control Pilot and Proximity Pilot) that communicate seamlessly with smart charging stations. This allows London drivers to take advantage of off-peak electricity tariffs, balancing grid demand and reducing overall charging costs.
