Experience the NACS charging connector in 3D
Take a look at the NACS AC charging connector from the CHARX connect eco family in precise detail. The product can be viewed from any angle using the zoom and rotate functions.
SAE-compliant and UL-certified
The North American Charging Standard (NACS) is gaining momentum and will replace the CCS type 1 charging standard in the long term. The switch to NACS will therefore play a central role in the electrification of the transport sector and the ramp-up of charging infrastructure in North America. As a specialist in e-mobility charging technology, we therefore offer SAE-compliant and UL-certified NACS charging cables that meet the highest demands.

100% standard-compliant For the highest quality, safety, and compatibility
Our NACS charging cables comply with the SAE J3400 automotive standard, which was adopted at the end of 2023 and is based on the proprietary Tesla charging connector. Our charging cables are UL 2251 certified, i.e., they have passed the UL safety tests and bear the UL certification mark. All development and production steps are also certified in accordance with the IATF 16949 automotive standard and therefore meet the high quality and process requirements of the automotive industry. All in all, this means:
- Robustness and durability due to the high quality of material and workmanship
- Maximum electrical safety for users
- High system availability and failsafe performance for the operator
- Cross-manufacturer compatibility with all other standardized NACS charging connection systems such as NACS vehicle charging inlets
Robust touch protection For durable electrical safety
In accordance with UL standard 2251, our NACS charging connectors are equipped with touch protection, which meets IP2XB degree of protection. This touch protection is implemented by protruding pins within the power contacts. Electrical accidents caused by inadvertently touching the contacts are thus prevented.
What makes our touch protection special are the fully molded plastic caps of the pins, which ensure a secure and permanent hold. This prevents the caps from getting stuck inside the vehicle charging inlet and resulting in costly failure of the charging station.
Custom cable assembly Suitable for your installation requirements
Our NACS charging cables are available as standard as a 25 ft long, unassembled cable. We also produce different cable lengths on request and offer a wide range of options for assembly – tailored to the installation requirements of your NACS charging stations:
- Flexible stripping length
- Custom step cut
- Crimped with ferrules
- Crimped with cable ring lugs
- Compacted using ultrasonic welding technology
Outlook for further NACS products DC charging cables and vehicle charging inlets
Our development teams are working day in, day out on further product innovations for the North American Charging Standard. Here is an overview of when you can expect various NACS products from Phoenix Contact:
- NACS DC charging cables for fast charging with 200 A and over 300 A (uncooled) and with over 600 A (cooled) will follow in 2025
- Customer-specific NACS vehicle charging inlets for automobile manufacturers will be developed in parallel
- Universal NACS vehicle charging inlets for utility vehicles, mobile machinery, and the transport sector will be available in various performance classes from 2026
